Bloody Disgusting learned just now that “Channel Zero’s” fourth installment will be titled “Channel Zero: The Dream Door” and will be directed by Cheap Thrills and Small Crimes‘ Evan Katz (E.L. Katz)!
The installment will star Brandon Scott (“Channel Zero: Butcher’s Block”, “Greys Anatomy”), Maria Sten (Straight Outta Compton), Steven Robertson (“Elementary”) and Steven Weber (“Wings”) and will premiere on SYFY later this year.
Nick Antosca, who has an overall deal with UCP, will return as executive producer, writer and showrunner for the upcoming installment.
Based on the “creepypasta” short story “Hidden Door” by Charlotte Bywater, “Channel Zero: The Dream Door” follows newlyweds Jillian and Tom, who have each brought secrets into their marriage. When they discover a strange door in their basement, those secrets start to threaten their relationship — and their lives.
Brandon Scott will star as “Tom Hodgson,” Jillian’s husband (and childhood best friend), a capable and thoughtful man who is deeply in love with his wife. But he’s troubled when secrets from their past threaten the marriage.
Steven Robertson will play “Ian,” Tom and Jillian’s next door neighbor, an open-minded psychology grad student who becomes involved in Tom and Jillian’s bizarre experience with the mysterious door in their basement.
Steven Weber will recur as “Abel Carnacki,” Jillian’s therapist. He has been listening to Jillian long enough to know about her trust issues and where they stem from. His quiet, controlled, almost hard to read tone is sometimes infuriating for Jillian, especially when she tries to talk to him about what — or who — was behind the door in their basement.
