A “Let the Right One In” TV series is on the way from Showtime, with the small screen project officially ordered to series back in September. The series is of course based on John Ajvide Lindqvist’s novel, which became the incredible Swedish movie Let the Right One In back in 2008, and then spawned the American remake Let Me In a couple years later.
Demián Bichir (The Nun) is attached to star in the “Let the Right One In” TV series, and Deadline reports today that Nick Stahl (Hunter Hunter) has signed on as a series regular.
Deadline notes, “Stahl will play Matthew, a former soldier and fiercely loyal fixer for the Logan family, whose clean-cut, mild-mannered exterior belies a savagery beneath.”
The series has been given a 10-episode order. The cast also includes Anika Noni Rose, Grace Gummer, Madison Taylor Baez, Kevin Carroll, Ian Foreman and Jacob Buster.
“The series version centers on Mark (Bichir) and his daughter Eleanor (Baez), whose lives were changed forever 10 years earlier when she was turned into a vampire. Locked in at age 12, perhaps forever, Eleanor lives a closed-in life, able to go out only at night, while her father does his best to provide her with the human blood she needs to stay alive.”
Andrew Hinderaker (Away) is the showrunner, with Seith Mann (Homeland) directing.
The project hails from Tomorrow Studios, who have been trying to get a “Let the Right One In” series off the ground for the last several years now, previously set up at A&E and TNT.
