Teacup teaser trailer and images build the mystery
In Teacup, a disparate group of people in rural Georgia must come together in the face of a mysterious threat in order to survive.
The showrunner for Teacup is Ian McCulloch who has been behind shows such as Yellowstone, Deputy, and Chicago Fire. E.L. Katz (Channel Zero, The Haunting of Bly Manor) is directing the first two episodes. Producing is James Wan (The Conjuring Universe, Archive 81, M3GAN), Michael Clear (Archive 81, Swamp Thing), and Rob Hackett (Archive 81, I Know What You Did Last Summer) for Atomic Monster, Francisca X. Hu, Kevin Tancharoen.
”After reading Robert McCammon’s book Stinger, the entire team at Atomic Monster felt a spark,” said james Wan in a statement. ”The story had all the ingredients for a captivating series and Ian McCulloch had a vision to bring it to life in a fresh way that was both startling and darkly atmospheric, but filled with a rich sense of humanity — often lacking in edgy narratives. Add in our incredibly talented cast led by Yvonne Strahovski, Scott Speedman and Chaske Spencer and fans are in for a true edge-of-your-seat experience.”
Teacup defies easy labels. 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. We hope you enjoy this wild ride as much as we’ve loved creating it!
Teacup stars Yvonne Strahovski, Scott Speedman, Chaske Spencer, Kathy Baker, Boris McGiver, Caleb Dolden, Emilie Bierre, and Luciano Leroux.
Teacup will premiere on Peacock on October 10, 2024.
