McCammon’s novel has the next description: The story takes place throughout a single twenty-four hour interval in Inferno, Texas. Inferno is a city in hassle, pushed to the brink by racial rigidity, gang violence, and a collapsing financial system. However issues can all the time worsen, and so they achieve this with astonishing velocity when an unidentified spacecraft crash lands within the desert outdoors of city, adopted by a second craft bearing the alien being who will quickly be generally known as Stinger. Stinger is a form of interstellar hunter on a mission he intends to finish, no matter the associated fee. He brings with him an countless array of technological marvels and an infinite capability for destruction that threaten the existence of Inferno, its inhabitants, and the bigger world past.

Teacup will comply with a disparate group of individuals in rural Georgia who should come collectively within the face of a mysterious menace to outlive.

James Wan is government producing Teacup by his firm Atomic Monster, alongside Michael Clear and Rob Hackett. Yellowstone consulting producer Ian McCulloch is a author and government producer on the present. Different government producers embody McCammon, Francisca X. Hu, Kevin Tancharoen, and E.L. Katz, who directed the primary two episodes. Danielle Bozzone is overseeing the undertaking for Atomic Monster. The present is coming our means from UCP, a division of Common Studio Group.

McCulloch offered the next assertion: “When Atomic Monster first approached me about making a sequence adaptation of Robert McCammon’s Stinger—a no-holds-barred, gargantuan spectacle of a novel alongside the strains of The Stand, Independence Day and Mars Assaults—to be sincere, I didn’t wish to throw my hat within the ring. I’m not a spectacle author. I’m a less-is-more author. I gravitate extra towards what are generally known as keyhole epics. Massive tales advised by small lenses. Assume Indicators, The Factor, A Quiet Place. However right here’s the factor. I learn Stinger and it stayed with me. Wouldn’t go away me alone. I simply couldn’t cease enthusiastic about its razor-sharp premise, the way it unfolds over the course of a single harrowing day, and in regards to the relatable and actual household McCammon places middle stage. That’s when the flash bang-light bulb concept hit… What if I tailored Stinger in a means that honors the e book and stays true to the sorts of tales I like to inform? Preserve the self-esteem. Preserve Stinger’s best parts. Take away the big ensemble. Take away the enormous set items. Even take away the e book’s crowded city setting. The difference could be like an acoustic guitar model of, say, a Radiohead tune. It gained’t have the manufacturing worth, digital devices, loops, or synthesized bells and whistles however it’s going to nonetheless have the melody, the construction, the lyrics, the actual magic on the core, all of the stuff that makes an awesome tune a nice tune. All of which is to say I may abruptly see precisely what to do and how one can do it. Two weeks later, Atomic Monster had the script for the primary episode. Quickly after that, Peacock purchased it. Not so lengthy after that, each my artistic and profession goals truly began coming true as extra scripts have been written, hires made, actors forged, units constructed, and manufacturing started… After all, throughout manufacturing the sequence modified and developed. Simply because it ought to. Even the title’s totally different. Stinger is now Teacup. The explanations for this are too spoilery to share however watch the primary few episodes and all will probably be revealed. Level being, the sequence is now very a lot its personal factor: a puzzle-box thriller, an edge-of-your-seat thriller, a can’t-but-must look horror story, a household drama, a science fiction epic—of the keyhole selection, in fact. However as singular, unusual, and shocking as I hope Teacup is, all you might want to do is peel away the layers, characters, conditions, and mythology and look behind the thrills, chills, hairpin turns and make-you gasp reveals. Do all that and also you’ll see, at its coronary heart, Teacup continues to be very a lot standing on the shoulders of Stinger. Simply because it ought to.

Wan added: “After studying Robert McCammon’s e book Stinger, the complete staff at Atomic Monster felt a spark. The story had all of the substances for a charming sequence and Ian McCulloch had a imaginative and prescient to carry it to life in a contemporary means that was each startling and darkly atmospheric, however crammed with a wealthy sense of humanity — typically missing in edgy narratives. Add in our extremely gifted forged led by Yvonne Strahovski, Scott Speedman and Chaske Spencer and followers are in for a real edge-of-your-seat expertise. Teacup defies straightforward labels. It’s a genre-bending mix of horror, thriller, and drama, with layers that unfold like a charming puzzle. It goes past chills and thrills and holds up a mirror to humanity, exploring the darkness that resides inside us all. We hope you take pleasure in this wild journey as a lot as we’ve cherished creating it!
