Move over, Widow’s Bay — there’s a new seaside horror show in town. Below is the name of the program in question, and by the looks of things, the upcoming series will be less comedic than Apple TV’s Emmy-winning show and more atmospheric, like the numerous shows Mike Flanagan created for Netflix.
Below stars Josh Hartnett as a Newfoundland fisherman named Calvin Penney who gets involved with a growing mystery impacting his home: Something dangerous is in the water, and it’s not going away. Is it a sea monster of the Loch Ness variety? That’s unknown at this time, but something tells me this creature isn’t like anything Penney or his tight-knit community have dealt with before.
Starring opposite Hartnett are Stranger Things alum Charlie Heaton, Mackenzie Davis, Willow Kean, Ruby Stokes, Rohan Campbell and Kaleb Horn. The program hails from creator Jesse McKeown, who most recently served as a writer on The Umbrella Academy.
