Tom Swift made his first appearance in a backdoor pilot during season two of Nancy Drew, and is inspired by the Tom Swift book series from Stratemeyer Syndicate, which also publishes the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys series.

In the series premiere episode, “…And the Liftoff to Saturn,” as an exceptionally brilliant inventor with unlimited resources and unimaginable wealth, the devilishly charming Tom Swift is a man who many men would kill to be, or be with – a man with the world in the palm of his hand.

But that world gets shaken to its core after the shocking disappearance of his father, thrusting Tom into a breathtaking adventure full of mysterious conspiracies and unexplained phenomena. On his whirlwind quest to unravel the truth, Tom finds himself fighting to stay one step ahead of an Illuminati-scale cabal hellbent on stopping him.

Also starring in the new series are Ashleigh Murray, Marquise Vilson, April Parker Jones, Albert Mwangi, and LeVar Burton as the Barclay, Tom’s AI.

Tom Swift premieres TONIGHT (May 31) at 9pm ET/PT on The CW and next day on The CW app.
