The news that From is coming back for a third season was great news for fans, especially since season two ended on a cliffhanger. The show created by John Griffin (Crater), and directed and showrun by Lost alums Jack Bender and Jeff Pinkner respectively, has been touted as one of the best shows you’re likely not watching.
I confess I’m one of those people who has yet to watch From, but the series’ official synopsis paints an intriguing story:
From unravels the mystery of a nightmarish town that traps all those who enter. As the unwilling residents fight to keep a sense of normalcy and search for a way out, they must also survive the threats of the surrounding forest—including the terrifying creatures that come out when the sun goes down. Season Two explores just how far the residents of this nightmarish place are willing to go to find answers, even as chilling new threats to their safety—and their sanity—begin to emerge.
The teaser, which you can check out below, is suitably upsetting/terrifying, which confirms the show’s horror bona fides. We also know that season three, according to a past press release, will see escape “become a tantalizing and very real possibility as the true nature of the town comes into focus, and the townspeople go on offense against the myriad horrors surrounding them.”
The cast is led by Lost alum Harold Perrineau and touts an ensemble cast that includes Catalina Sandino Moreno (Maria Full of Grace, The Affair), Eion Bailey (Band of Brothers, Once Upon a Time), Hannah Cheramy (Under Wraps, Van Helsing), Simon Webster (Strays), Ricky He (The Good Doctor), Chloe Van Landschoot (Charity, Skin), Corteon Moore (Utopia Falls), Pegah Ghafoori (The Perfect Wedding), David Alpay (Castle Rock), Elizabeth Saunders (Clarice), Elizabeth Moy, and Avery Konrad (Honor Society). Season two added new series regulars including Scott McCord (East of Middle West), Nathan D. Simmons (Diggstown, This Hour Has 22 Minutes), Kaelen Ohm (Hit & Run, Eumenides Falls), Angela Moore (A Series of Unfortunate Events, Maid), AJ Simmons (Reacher), and Deborah Grover (My Next Door Nightmare, Jann).
The third season of From is set to premiere on MGM+ sometime this fall.
