Posted Filed under

First look images for Carrie have been released ahead of an Autumn arrival on Prime Video

Based on Stephen King’s debut novel, the new show is described as a bold, timely, and surprising reinvention of this classic coming‑of‑age story, adapted for television for the first time by showrunner Mike Flanagan. It comes to Prime Video this autumn.

What do we know about Carrie

From the press release, we learn:

Misfit high‑schooler Carrie White (Summer Howell) has spent her life hidden away inside the walls of her home with her fiercely protective mother, Margaret (Samantha Sloyan). After her father’s sudden, untimely death thrusts her into the unforgiving ecosystem of public high school, Carrie is forced to navigate a viral bullying scandal that tears through her community, the relentless pressure and casual cruelty of the social‑media age, and the awakening of mysterious telekinetic powers that rise alongside her adolescence.

In terms of the cast, alongside Summer Howell, series regulars also includes Samantha Sloyan (The Pitt) as Margaret White, Siena Agudong (Resident Evil) as Sue Snell, Alison Thornton (Fire Country) as Chris Hargensen, Joel Oulette (My Life with the Walter Boys) as Tommy Ross, Josie Tota (The Buccaneers) as Tina, Arthur Conti (Beetlejuice Beetlejuice) as Billy, Thalia Dudek (The Running Man) as Emaline, Amber Midthunder (Prey) as Miss Desjardin, and Matthew Lillard (Man of Tomorrow) as Principal Grayle.

We don’t expect trailers until later this summer, and will let you know when we see any.
