It’s cause for excitement whenever Sam Raimi dips his toes into the horror genre, so you’ll be happy to hear that Raimi has boarded the upcoming “50 States of Fear,“ a series that’ll be part of Jeffrey Katzenberg’s new venture NewTV, a streaming service set to launch by 2020.
Deadline notes that Raimi will be the architect of what is presumably a horror series, though no actual information about “50 States of Fear” is actually available at this time.
“The service will be a two-tiered subscription model similar to Hulu. The lower-priced version, $5/month, will have select advertising, and an ad free version will cost $8/month.”
Van Toffler and Gunpowder & Sky will produce alongside Tony DiSanto. Tommy Coriale will executive produce for DiGa, while Debbie Liebling also exec produces.
