Black Panther’ Screenwriter to Adapt Serial Killer Thriller ‘All the Sinners Bleed’ for Netflix Series Joe Robert Cole (Black Panther, “American Crime Story: The People v. O.J. Simpson”) is adapting S.A. Cosby’s New York Times bestselling novel All the Sinners Bleed into a series for Netflix. Haunted by his past in the FBI and his devout mother’s untimely death, the first Black sheriff in a small Bible Belt county is tasked with leading the hunt for a serial killer who has quietly been preying on Black communities in southern Virginia for years in the name of God. Cole will serve as showrunner, writer, and executive producer in addition to directing the first and select episodes.

Matthew Lillard in Talks to Join Mike Flanagan’s ‘Carrie’ TV Series Matthew Lillard is back in the horror genre in a big way, first starring in the Five Nights at Freddy’s movie and now returning to the Scream franchise next year. Lillard is also re-entering the world of Stephen King, with Deadline reporting today that he’s in talks to star in the upcoming Amazon series adaptation of King’s Carrie from creator Mike Flanagan! Matthew Lillard will next be seen in NEON’s The Life of Chuck, also directed by Mike Flanagan and also based on a Stephen King story. That movie, however, is not a horror movie. Prime Video recently confirmed a series green light for “Carrie,” an eight-episode adaptation of Stephen King‘s classic 1974 horror novel produced by Amazon MGM Studios. Mike Flanagan serves as writer and showrunner in addition to directing select episodes. Summer H. Howell (Curse of Chucky) has landed the leading role of Carrie White for the Flanagan series, while Siena Agudong (“Resident Evil”) has been cast as Sue Snell. In Stephen King’s Carrie, “Misfit high schooler Carrie White has spent her life in seclusion with her domineering mother. After her father’s sudden and untimely death, Carrie finds herself contending with the alien landscape of public High School, a bullying scandal that shatters her community, and the emergence of mysterious telekinetic powers.” Described as “a bold and timely reimagining” of the story, the upcoming Prime Video show is executive produced by Flanagan and longtime producing partner Trevor Macy. Carrie was previously adapted by Brian De Palma in 1976, David Carson in 2002, and Kimberly Peirce in 2013. Katt Shea also directed a Carrie sequel movie back in 1999.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ Reboot Finds New Slayer in Ryan Kiera Armstrong Into every generation, a Slayer is born. In this generation, the new Slayer for Hulu’s “Buffy The Vampire Slayer“ is Firestarter and “Skeleton Crew“ star Ryan Kiera Armstrong. The announcement came from the original series’ Slayer, Sarah Michelle Gellar, who broke the news to Armstrong in a touching video and will reprise her iconic role as Buffy Summers. Watch the video below, which sees her asking Armstrong to fight by her side to save the world in the upcoming pilot for Hulu, with Armstrong breaking down in tears from excitement. It was previously reported that the “Buffy the Vampire Slayer“ reboot will focus on a new Slayer that was described as “a cerebral 16-year-old named Nova (likely a placeholder). Skewing more Willow than Buffy, the character is described as very smart and a bit of a loner.“ The new slayer’s friends will include Hugo, an out-and-proud nerd who comes from money, and Gracie, a young vampire expert who’s an acolyte of Buffy. However, casting has yet to be announced for either role. With this new key casting in place, expect that to change soon. “From the moment I saw Ryan’s audition, I knew there was only one girl that I wanted by my side,“ Gellar said in a statement. “To have that kind of emotional intelligence, and talent, at such a young age is truly gift. The bonus is that her smile lights up even the darkest room.” Nora and Lilla Zuckerman (“Poker Face”) wrote the pilot, and Chloé Zhao (Nomadland) is set to direct and executive produce. Gellar is also set to executive produce. Additional executive producers include original “Buffy” EPs Gail Berman, Fran Kuzui, Kaz Kuzui, and Dolly Parton. Created by Joss Whedon, “Buffy the Vampire Slayer“ ran for seven seasons between 1997 and 2003. https://www.instagram.com/sarahmgellar/reel/DJrsKPQuUIY/
