Earlier this week we brought you the first-look at Truth Seekers, an upcoming supernatural comedy drama series which will reunite comedy duo Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. The series is about a team of part-time paranormal investigators who team up in order to uncover and film ghost sightings across the UK, sharing their adventures on an online channel for all to see. In addition to Frost and Pegg, Truth Seekers also stars Malcolm McDowell as Richard, Samson Kayo as Elton, Susan Wokoma as Helen, and Emma D'Arcy as Astrid. During its virtual panel at San Diego Comic-Con@Home today, Amazon released the first teaser trailer for Truth Seekers, which you can check out above!
"Working with Nick feels like coming home. It’s my base line for working," said Simon Pegg during the virtual panel, adding that "The one deal breaker for me, playing Dave, was that I wear a terrible wig – one that makes me look like a mannequin." Speaking of the panel, we'll have a full recap up a little later, so be sure to keep an eye out!
The official synopsis for Truth Seekers:
Starring Nick Frost as Gus and Simon Pegg as Dave, Truth Seekers is a Supernatural Comedy Drama Series about a team of part-time paranormal investigators who team up to uncover and film ghost sightings across the UK, sharing their adventures on an online channel for all to see. However, as they stake out haunted churches, underground bunkers and abandoned hospitals with their array of homemade ghost-detecting gizmos, their supernatural experiences grow more frequent, more terrifying and even deadly, as they begin to uncover a conspiracy that could bring about Armageddon for the entire human race.
Truth Seekers doesn't have an official release date just yet, but it's expected to debut on Amazon Prime Video later this year.
