According to The Hollywood Reporter, Peacock reveals new official trailer for their horror fiction series Teacup. Created by James Wan (The Conjuring 2), the latest trailer for the series shows Yvonne Strahovski (Handmaid’s Tale), Scott Speedman (Grey’s Anatomy) and Caleb Dolden (Follow Me) who ban together to face off against a mysterious threat to survive.
Below is the official trailer for the series.
As per The Hollywood Reporter, the series revealed a first look at what will happen during Comic-Con, where the team talked about the different gruesome elements within the series. Strahovski spoke about how she would get squeamish in the series after seeing certain graphic prosthetics. “This genuinely made me feel sick,” she admitted. Additionally, Speedman said working on Teacup reminded him of starring in the 2008 horror film The Strangers.”
Showrunner Ian McCulloch (The Tales of Para Handy) said in a note to the press that the series is “now very much its own thing: a puzzle-box mystery, an edge-of-your-seat thriller, a can’t-but-must look horror story, a family drama, a science fiction epic — of the keyhole variety, of course. But as singular, strange, and surprising as I hope Teacup is, all you need to do is peel away the layers, characters, situations, and mythology and look behind the thrills, chills, hairpin turns and make-you gasp reveals. Do all that and you’ll see, at its heart, Teacup is still very much standing on the shoulders of Stinger. Just as it should.
Additionally, Wan said in his note, “Teacup defies easy labels. It’s a genre-bending blend of horror, mystery and drama, with layers that unfold like a captivating puzzle. It goes beyond chills and thrills and holds up a mirror to humanity, exploring the darkness that resides within us all.
Teacup premieres on Peacock on October 10.
