A new horror thriller series titled 'Teacup' is set to premiere on Peacock, with Yvonne Strahovski taking on the lead role of Maggie Chenoweth. The show, inspired by Robert McCammon's novel 'Stinger,' is created by writer Ian McCulloch and executive produced by James Wan and Atomic Monster.
'Teacup' follows a group of individuals in rural Georgia who must unite to confront a mysterious threat and ensure their survival. Strahovski, known for her acclaimed performances in 'The Handmaid's Tale,' 'Stateless,' and 'Dexter,' will not only star in the series but also serve as a producer.
Having garnered two Emmy Award nominations for her role in 'The Handmaid's Tale,' Strahovski's involvement in 'Teacup' has generated significant anticipation among fans of the genre. The sixth and final season of 'The Handmaid's Tale' is expected to air in 2025.
The series will be helmed by E.L. Katz, with Wan, Michael Clear, and Rob Hackett among the executive producers. Other notable figures attached to the project include Francisca X. Hu, Kevin Tancharoen, and Robert McCammon.
'Teacup' is one of the latest offerings from Atomic Monster on Peacock, following the announcement of an espionage sci-fi thriller series starring Simu Liu. With a talented team of creatives and a compelling premise, 'Teacup' is poised to captivate audiences with its blend of horror and suspense.
