Castle Rock adds It’s Chosen Jacobs to the cast

Chosen Jacobs returns to Stephen King land for Hulu’s Castle Rock

Hulu’s Castle Rock has just gained another Stephen King film alum in Chosen Jacobs, who starred as the young Mike Hanlon in last year’s hit horror It. He is set to play Wendell Deaver, the son of André Holland’s Henry Deaver.

Jacobs joins an impressive cast made up of the likes of Sissy Spacek (Carrie), Bill Skarsgård (It) and Melanie Lynskey (Rose Red).

You can read the full synopsis for the series here:

A psychological-horror series set in the Stephen King multiverse, Castle Rock combines the mythological scale and intimate character storytelling of King’s best-loved works, weaving an epic saga of darkness and light, played out on a few square miles of Maine woodland. The fictional Maine town of Castle Rock has figured prominently in King’s literary career: CujoThe Dark HalfIT and Needful Things, as well as novella The Body and numerous short stories such as Rita Hayworth And The Shawshank Redemption are either set there or contain references to Castle Rock. Castle Rock is an original suspense/thriller — a first-of-its-kind reimagining that explores the themes and worlds uniting the entire King canon, while brushing up against some of his most iconic and beloved stories.

The series stars Malenie Lynskey, Scott Glenn, André Holland, Jane Levy, Terry O’Quinn, Bill Skarsgård and Sissy Spacek. It comes from Manhattan duo Sam Shaw & Dustin Thomason, and will have 10 episodes.

Castle Rock will air on Hulu in 2018. Keep up with the latest genre news with the new issue of SciFiNow.
