Television is in a golden age these days, with more and more new names appearing on the TV show market. This summer, the fledgling online service NewTV joined the TV arms race. According to its founders, former head of DreamWorks Animation studio Jeffrey Katzenberg and CEO of Hewlett-Packard Corporation Margaret Whitman, the start-up capital of the company will amount to about $ 1 billion. As it became known to Deadline, NewTV executives have decided on their first television project.The streaming service's starter lineup will include the horror anthology 50 States of Fear. The details of her plot are still kept secret. The title of the series can be translated as either "Fifty States of Fear" or "Fifty States of Fear". If the second option is correct, we can talk about a television adaptation of the book of the same name by Eric and Galen Foley, in which the writing duo collected a collection of the most famous American children's horror stories - from tales of the ghosts of Civil War participants from Alabama to creepy stories about bloodthirsty cowboys from Wyoming. Sam Raimi has been appointed curator of the series. The acclaimed Hollywood director, screenwriter and producer is the ideal candidate for this position. Firstly, Sam is familiar with the horror genre firsthand: he is the creator of the cult Evil Dead franchise and the producer of The Curse, 30 Days of Night, Don't Breathe and many other famous horror films. Secondly, Raimi already has a wealth of experience working on TV: over the years, he had a hand in creating such small screen hits as The Amazing Journeys of Hercules, Xena - Warrior Princess, The Legend of the Seeker and Spartacus .  The launch of the NewTV online service will take place at the end of 2019. The Topic of Article: Sam Raimi will create a horror anthology. |
