Last week, I had a chance to talk with some of the cast and creator of the upcoming Peacock Horror Series, Teacup. The series is based on the New York Times bestselling novel Stinger by Robert McCammon. It follows a group of individuals in rural Georgia who are trapped on a farm. So, to survive they must set aside their differences to come together against a mysterious and deadly threat.
Yvonne Strahovski, best known for her role as Serena Joy Waterford on The Handmaid’s Tale plays Maggie Chenoweth. Scott Speedman (Grey’s Anatomy/The Strangers), will play her husband James Chenoweth. Then, Chaske Spencer, who recently starred as Henry “Black Crow” Lopez in Marvel’s Echo, will take on the role of Ruben Shanley.
So, I had a chance to speak with Scott Speedman and Chaske Spencer about the upcoming series! They spoke about what fans can expect and bringing horror to life!
