Peacock’s official Teacup trailer warns that “it’s coming and it kills everything that gets in its way.” And as the trailer unfolds, it appears that the terrifying warning was spot-on.
The new horror series is inspired by Robert McCammon’s bestseller Stinger and stars Yvonne Strahovski (The Handmaid’s Tale), Scott Speedman (You), and Chaske Spencer (Marvel’s Echo). Kathy Baker, Boris McGiver, Caleb Dolden, Emilie Bierre, and Luciano Leroux also star.
“Teacup follows a disparate group of people in rural Georgia who must come together in the face of a mysterious threat in order to survive,” reads Peacock’s synopsis. Ian McCulloch (Yellowstone) serves as showrunner and executive producer, with Francisca X. Hu, Kevin Tancharoen, author Robert McCammon, and Atomic Monster’s James Wan (The Conjuring Universe, Archive 81, M3GAN), Michael Clear (Swamp Thing), and Rob Hackett (I Know What You Did Last Summer) involved as executive producers. E.L. Katz (The Haunting of Bly Manor) directed the first two episodes and executive produces.
“Teacup defies easy labels,” says James Wan. “It’s a genre-bending blend of horror, mystery, and drama, with layers that unfold like a captivating puzzle. It goes beyond chills and thrills and holds up a mirror to humanity, exploring the darkness that resides within us all.”
Teacup will premiere on October 10, 2024 with the release of the first two episodes. Two new episodes will be released on subsequent Thursdays through Halloween.
