Not only is prequel The First Purge arriving in theaters this summer, but the franchise is also getting its own spinoff TV series. It recently landed at USA Network and Syfy.

Deadline reports today that Amanda Warren (pictured below in “The Leftovers”) and Colin Woodell (Unsane) have joined a cast led by the previously announced Gabriel Chavarria (pictured above in War for the Planet of the Apes) and Jessica Garza (Six).

Warren will play Jane. A dedicated and hardworking finance professional, Jane’s convinced that she’s hit an insurmountable glass ceiling at her firm, so she hires a Purge-assassin.

Woodell will portray Rick. After a lifetime of bootstrapping, Rick is finally climbing the social ladder. But currying favor with the pro-Purge elite presents unexpected challenges to his marriage, as he and his wife must agree on what moral price they’ll pay to achieve the American dream.

The franchise is about one day each year when murder and mayhem is legalized. Franchise creator James DeMonaco oversees the series which will be an entirely new chapter in America’s 12 hours of annual lawlessness and is slated to launch in conjunction with the next installment in the movie franchise, The First Purge.

Writer in the horror community since 2008. Editor in Chief of Bloody Disgusting. Owns Eli Roth's prop corpse from Piranha 3D. Has four awesome cats. Still plays with toys.
