The team behind Blumhouse Productions and USA Network’s legal drama The Rainmaker has created an unique and eye-catching satire legal ad to promote the show that’s currently airing, according to Variety. The ad is centered around the suggestion that if any viewers were terrified of Blumhouse horror films, they may have a chance to file a claim, and possibly receive compensation.
In the ad, it stars three of The Rainmaker‘s characters from the series. The show stars Milo Callaghan (Rivals, The Strangers: Chapter 1) as Rudy Baylor, Lana Parrilla (Once Upon a Time, The Lincoln Lawyer) as Jocelyn Stone, and P.J. Byrne (Babylon, The End of Oak Street) as Deck Shifflet, who all appear on the ad. Also on the show is Madison Iseman (Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, Annabelle Comes Home) who stars as Sarah Plankmore, John Slattery (Mad Men, Desperate Housewives) as Leo F. Drummond, Merle Dandridge (Greenleaf, The Last of Us) as Amanda Vonn, and Karen Bryson (Bodies, Just Charlie) as Dot Black. The studio is actually collecting submissions through the link on the ad.
The show follows a young lawyer who works at a personal injury law firm alongside his paralegal and senior partner as they take on a high stakes medical case that happens to be his past workplace. Season two will follow his now reputation from his case from season one.
The Rainmaker‘s showrunners, creators, and executive producers are Michael Seitzman (Code Black, Intelligence) and Jason Richman (Stumptown, Bad Company). Jason Blum (The Purge, Insidious), John Grisham (The Firm, The Client) and David Gernert (The Partner, The Innocent Man) are also credited as executive producers of the show.
