WATCH: Spike’s ‘The Mist’ Featurette – ‘Welcome to Bridgeville’
If you’ve ever lived in a small town, then you know just how crazy it can be. Everybody knows everybody else’s business and history. It can be quite stressful. Now, imagine that a mysterious mist which alters the way people behave rolled into the town. Complete and total anarchy, right?
That’s pretty much the environment and setting for Spike’s television adaptation of Stephen King’s The Mist. Set in a small Maine town by the name of Bridgeville, the town is described as a pressure cooker, even before the mysterious mist takes over.
The below featurette titled The Mist: “Welcome to Bridgeville” gives audiences an overview of what the town is like, some insight into who the main characters are and more importantly, their relationships with each other. There’s the close knit family, the jock, the cop and many others familiar small town staples. Watch the featurette below to get an idea of how they all connect.
The series stars Morgan Spector, Alyssa Sutherland, Gus Birney, Danica Curcic, Okezie Morro, Luke Cosgrove, Darren Pettie, Russell Posner, Dan Butler, Isiah Whitlock Jr., and Frances Conroy. The official synopsis for Spikes The Mist is below:
Based on a story by Stephen King, Spike’s THE MIST centers around a small town family that is torn apart by a brutal crime. As they deal with the fallout an eerie mist rolls in, suddenly cutting them off from the rest of the world and, in some cases, each other. Family, friends and adversaries become strange bedfellows, battling the mysterious mist and its threats, fighting to maintain morality and sanity as the rules of society break down.
The Mist premieres Thursday, June 22nd on Spike. In case you missed it, you can check out the trailer HERE. Will you be watching?
