Casting news of the series “a haunting”

We already know that a sensible Director Mike Flanagan (“Oculus”, “Somnia”) will turn a vintage horror novel “the haunting” (The Haunting of Hill House) in the series. The eponymous book by Shirley Jackson was published in 1959 and is considered a real classic. A modern take on the sinister history of the mansion ordered Netflix: it is planned that the show will consist of ten episodes.

Became known the names of the actors who will appear in a spooky house. Looks like Flanagan much more comfortable to work with proven people than to attract new ones: we expect a lot of friends in his films. so…

The project was joined by Henry Thomas (“E. T.”, “11:14”), Elizabeth Reaser (“grey’s Anatomy”, “True detective”) and Kate Siegel (“gangs”). All three starred in Flanagan in the movie “cheaper by the dozen. The curse of the Board of the devil”, and Siegel, part-time wife of the Director, appeared in nearly all his paintings. Someone will say: nepotism! You can also say, a family row. Kate’s not just a shining face in the films of her husband: she still with the script helps him (in the Thriller “the Silence” Siegel declared a full-fledged co-author). In General, such is the entertaining company of old acquaintances is selected. Introverts approve.

Earlier in the house on the hill was called Michiel, Hausman (“Game of thrones”, “orphan black”) and Carla Gugino (“Pine”, “sin City”). The latter, we, by the way, not so long ago seen in the opening scenes of “Gerald” based on the works of Stephen king. And who deals with the adaptation, remember? Right, Flanagan. There is a suspicion that he just doesn’t know phone numbers for other actors. But this is not accurate.

When working on the series Flanagan will combine the duties of a Director, screenwriter and Executive producer. With producing will help him longtime partner Trevor Macy, and also Justin Falvy and Darryl Frank of Amblin TV. Since the project is at an early stage of production, the timing of the release is not reported.
