Annie Wilkes brings Misery to Castle Rock in season 2 trailer

September 13, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

Hulu has released the first trailer for the second season of the Stephen King-inspired horror anthology series Castle Rock which gives us our first look at Lizzie Caplan as a younger version of Annie Wilkes from King’s classic novel Misery, as well as teasing the origin story of the psychopathic nurse; watch it here…

A psychological-horror series set in the Stephen King multiverse, Castle Rock combines the mythological scale and intimate character storytelling of King’s best-loved works, weaving an epic saga of darkness and light, played out on a few square miles of Maine woodland. The fictional Maine town of Castle Rock has figured prominently in King’s literary career: Cujo, The Dark Half, IT and Needful Things, as well as novella The Body and numerous short stories such as Rita Hayworth and The Shawshank Redemption are either set there or contain references to Castle Rock. Castle Rock is an original suspense/thriller — a first-of-its-kind reimagining that explores the themes and worlds uniting the entire King canon, while brushing up against some of his most iconic and beloved stories.

Castle Rock season 2 premieres on October 23rd on Hulu.
