We’re two weeks away from October, and you understand what which means: horror time. Whereas Alien: Romulus and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice are cleansing up in theaters, there’s some scary stuff coming to TV, and Peacock’s hoping you’ll tune in for its new present, Teacup.
Created by Ian McCulloch (Yellowstone) and government produced by Conjuring head James Wan, the collection stars Yvonne Strahovski and Scott Speedman as a married couple dwelling on an remoted ranch in rural Georgia. However issues are beginning to get somewhat bizarre: the animals are spooked, their younger son goes lacking, and after his return, a mysterious man in a fuel masks attracts a line to cordon off the ranch. And based on the child, some factor is coming that the ranchers have to defend themselves in opposition to. Even worse, in the event that they cross that threshold the masked man makes…properly, it looks as if dangerous issues are gonna occur.
Teacup is impressed by Robert McCammon’s 1988 novel Stinger, which McCulloch known as a “no-holds-barred, gargantuan spectacle of a novel.” At Comedian-Con this previous July, he defined how Wan’s manufacturing firm Atomic Monster approached him about adapting Stinger for TV, and regardless of being extra geared towards “giant tales informed by way of small lenses” (assume Indicators and A Quiet Place), the ebook “wouldn’t depart me alone. I simply couldn’t cease fascinated with its razor-sharp premise, the way it unfolds over the course of a single harrowing day. […] That’s when the flash-bang light-bulb thought hit.”
Additionally starring Chaske Spencer, Kathy Baker, and Boris McGiver, Peacock will premiere Teacup’s first two episodes on October 10, adopted by two episodes per week till it wraps on Halloween.
