How can one man be in two places at the same time?
Ben Mendelsohn and Jason Bateman star in HBO‘s “The Outsider,” an adaptation of Stephen King‘s same-titled novel that has been set to premiere on January 12, 2020.
The full official trailer for the series has arrived today, along with praise from King himself.
King tweeted today, “The Outsider is one of the best adaptations of my work. Hope you’ll watch it.”
You can start by watching the trailer below.
The 10-episode series follows police detective Ralph Anderson (Mendelsohn), as he sets out to investigate the mutilated body of 11-year-old Frankie Peterson found in the Georgia woods.
The mysterious circumstances surrounding this horrifying crime leads Ralph, still grieving the recent death of his own son, to bring in unorthodox private investigator Holly Gibney (Cynthia Erivo), whose uncanny abilities he hopes will help explain the unexplainable.
Bill Camp, Mare Winningham, Paddy Considine, Julianne Nicholson, Yul Vázquez, Jeremy Bobb and Marc Menchaca also star.
