This really will go down as the year of Stephen King as we have THE DARK TOWER hitting us in August, IT crawling out of the sewers September 8th, THE MIST series hitting Spike June 22nd, and MR. MERCEDES premiering on August 9th. And those are only a few of the King works in the pipeline!
On the subject of MR. MERCEDES we have had looks at the cast and the set but today we get our first look at the series by way of a teaser trailer. The teaser/featurette is filled with cool footage, and if I wasn't already excited about the upcoming series, I would be after peeping this.
You can check out the trailer/featurette below and then let us know what you think of MR. MERCEDES – either the upcoming series or the novel – on Facebook, Twitter, and/or Instagram!
