Be Not Afraid: Official Trailer for Netflix and Mike Flanagan’s “Midnight Mass” Brings Miracles at a Price
Netflix and Mike Flanagan (“The Haunting of Hill House,” “The Haunting of Bly Manor”) are joining forces once again for another horror series, this one titled “Midnight Mass.”
“Midnight Mass,” directed by Flanagan, will be available to Netflix members on September 24, 2021. Today brings the full official trailer, our best sneak-peek at the new series yet.
“Midnight Mass” tells the tale of a small, isolated island community whose existing divisions are amplified by the return of a disgraced young man (Zach Gilford) and the arrival of a charismatic priest (Hamish Linklater). When Father Paul’s appearance on Crockett Island coincides with unexplained and seemingly miraculous events, a renewed religious fervor takes hold of the community – but do these miracles come at a price?
The seven episode limited series also stars Kate Siegel, Rahul Abburi, Crystal Balint, Matt Biedel, Alex Essoe, Annarah Cymone, Annabeth Gish, Rahul Kohli, Kristin Lehman, Robert Longstreet, Igby Rigney, Samantha Sloyan, Henry Thomas, and Michael Trucco. The series is executive produced by Flanagan and Trevor Macy for Intrepid Pictures.
Interesting to note, the project has ties to both Hush and Gerald’s Game. “Midnight Mass” was the book Maddie Young wrote in Hush, and it later appeared in Gerald’s Game.
Watch the official trailer below, which promises a horror series of the same quality as “Hill House” and “Bly Manor” before it. Flanagan Horror continues to be something special.
For the first time ever, a real dog is playing Scooby-Doo in the upcoming Netflix series “Scooby-Doo: Origins,” and the streamer has revealed a first look at the dog this week.
Meet the real-life Scooby-Doo below!
Maxwell Jenkins (“Lost in Space”) will play Fred, Tanner Hagen (“The Pitt”) will play Shaggy, and Abby Ryder Fortson (Ant-Man) will play Velma, joining Mckenna Grace (Scream 7) as Daphne in the upcoming live action prequel series, “Scooby-Doo: Origins.”
The new series is “a modern reimagining of the iconic mystery-solving group of teens and their very special dog. During their final summer at camp, old friends Shaggy and Daphne get embroiled in a haunting mystery surrounding a lonely lost Great Dane puppy that may have been a witness to a supernatural murder.
“Together with the pragmatic and scientific townie, Velma, and the strange, but ever so handsome new kid, Freddy, they set out to solve the case that is pulling each of them into a creepy nightmare that threatens to expose all of their secrets.”
Josh Appelbaum (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol) and Scott Rosenberg (Venom, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle) are showrunners and writers.
Toby Haynes (“Andor,” “Black Mirror”) will direct the first of eight episodes, in addition to serving as an executive producer. Greg Berlanti (“Riverdale,” “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina”) will executive produce the upcoming Netflix series with Sarah Schechter and Leigh London Redman via Berlanti Productions and its overall deal with Warner Bros. Television.
