SDCC 2015: The First Trailer For ‘Outcast’ Has Arrived!

Briefly: Finally, finally, finally, we’ve received our first look at the Cinemax adaptation of Robert Kirkman’s Outcast.

The TV adaptation was in the works before the first issue of the comic even hit store shelves. Not surprising at all, based on the popularity of The Walking Dead, and it certainly doesn’t hurt that Outcast, while a bit slow to get off the ground, has been a fantastic read so far.

Outcast focuses on Kyle Barnes, a man who has been plagued by possession for his entire life, and begins a journey to discover why. Kyle will be portrayed by Gone Girl actor Patrick Fugit. Expanded cast includes Philip Glenister as Reverend Anderson, a hard drinking, hard gambling West Virginian evangelical preacher who believes he’s a soldier in God’s holy war against evil, and Gabriel Bateman as Joshua Austin, a young boy who lives across town who appears to be possessed by a demon and has a mysterious connection to Kyle.

Take a look at the teaser trailer below, and let us know if you’re looking forward to the series. Outcast‘s 10-episode first season hits Cinemax in 2016!
