The first season followed: 

Henry Deaver (André Holland, American Horror Story), a Death Row attorney who returns to Castle Rock, Maine, his hometown, after he receives an anonymous phone call from the infamous Shawshank State Penitentiary. The call is about a nameless young man (Bill Skarsgård, It) who is found locked in an underground cage that’s located in a long-abandoned cell block beneath the prison. Upon his discovery, the mysterious young man, with a sinister and unnerving presence, whispers Henry’s name. Curious about how and why someone left this boy imprisoned, Henry is drawn into the case and attempts to help him. But there are reasons why “The Kid” was imprisoned.  And reasons why he should never be set free.

Permeated with a sense of foreboding and dread, the haunting small town of Castle Rock is not willing to let Henry leave. Aside from now having to deal with the strange young man found in the prison, Henry is faced with the fact that his adoptive mother (Sissy Spacek, Carrie), who lives in Castle Rock with retired Sheriff Alan Pangborn (Scott Glenn), is struggling with the onset of dementia. Reluctantly, Henry stays to figure out just who “The Kid” is and how he wound up imprisoned under such appalling circumstances.

In addition to Holland, Skarsgård, and Spacek, the series also stars Melanie Lynskey, Jane Levy, and Terry O’Quinn. It was created by Sam Shaw and Dustin Thomason who serve as executive producers along with Abrams, King, Ben Stephenson, Mark Lafferty, and Liz Glotzer. The series is from Bad Robot Productions. The first season will be available to own on Digital October 15, 2018, and on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD on January 8, 2019.

CASTLE ROCK has been picked up for a second season on Hulu.
