Spike TV just released a new look behind-the-scenes of the first season of “The Mist”, a television adaptation of Stephen King’s novel.
Something I never noticed until now is that it looks like a huge chunk of the debut season takes place in a mall, as opposed to a grocery store! Eat your heart out, Dawn of the Dead.
The featurette reveals a lot about the new series, including the characters, locations and possibly the beginning of it all… but the main thing I learned is that I could listen to Frances Conroy speak about the show for hours!
In the series…
“A small town family is torn apart by a brutal crime. As they deal with the fallout, an eerie mist rolls in, suddenly cutting them off from the rest of the world and, in some cases, each other. Family, friends and adversaries become strange bedfellows, battling the mysterious mist and its threats, fighting to maintain morality and sanity as the rules of society break down.”
Morgan Spector, Frances Conroy, Alyssa Sutherland, Gus Birney, Dan Butler, Luke Cosgrove, Danica Curcic, Okezie Morro, Darren Pettie, Russell Posner, and Isiah Whitlock, Jr. star.
The ten-episode first season of “The Mist” premieres Thursday, June 22nd on Spike.
