Dan Stevens loves keeping it spooky, and now he’s set to headline and executive produce a new project for AMC.
Stevens has been tapped for the third installment of AMC Networks’ The Terror horror anthology, Devil in Silver. It’s written by Chris Cantwell and author Victor LaValle, whose novel The Devil in Silver the season is based on. Karyn Kusama (Jennifer’s Body, Yellowjackets) will also serve as an executive producer and direct the first two episodes.
“I’m thrilled to be a part of The Terror: Devil in Silver,” Stevens said. “This series is a dark symphony of psychological horror and gripping drama set to rock the audience. Victor LaValle, Christopher Cantwell, and this incredible team have crafted a unique and twisted dance of devils and shadows. I look forward to delivering something epic that will echo through the halls like an iron bell.”
The series tells the story of “Pepper (Stevens), a working-class moving man who, through a combination of bad luck and a bad temper, finds himself wrongfully committed to New Hyde Psychiatric Hospital – an institution filled with the people society would rather forget. There, he must contend with patients who work against him, doctors who harbor grim secrets, and perhaps even the very Devil himself. As Pepper navigates a hellscape where nothing is as it seems, he finds that the only path to freedom is to face down the entity that thrives on the suffering within New Hyde’s walls – but doing so may prove that the worst demons of all live inside him.”
The new installment of The Terror will premiere on AMC and AMC+ in 2025.
