Teacup, the James Wan-produced serie𒅌s inspired by Robert McCammon’s sci-fi horror book Stinger, has been unveiled at San Diego Co💙mic-Con.
Arriving on Peacock on with a two-episode premiere on October 10, Teacup is described by showrunner and executive producer Ian McCulloch in a statement as "a puzzle-box mystery, an edge-of-your-seat thriller, a can’t-but-must ♔look horror story, a famil༒y drama, [and] a science fiction epic."
The logline reads: 'A tඣerrifyin𝔉g tale following a disparate group of people in rural Georgia who must come together in the face of a mysterious threat in order to survive.'
1988's Stinger, which follows a Texas group as they battle with an alien threat🐲 amid a crumbling society, is only the basis for the story here, though.
As McCulloch explains, he wanted to "keepꦦ Stinger’s most effective elements" but strip things back elsewhere.
"Take away the large ensemble. Take away the giant set pieces. Even take away t🧸he book’s crowded town setting. The adaptation would be like an acoustic guitar version of, say, a Radiohead s🌊ong."
The first teaser (which you can see above) is suitably cryptic and terrifying, with a spinning teacup adorned with art of a deer. It soon tra🐼nsforms into something altogether more grotesque, with sharp horns protruding from its skin.
With James Wan's Atomic Monster (which has ♛produced the likes of The Nun and Malignant) backing Teacup, it's sure to be a spine-chilling journey into some seriously messed-up depths.

I'm the Senior Entertainment Writer her🉐e at GamesRadar+, focusing on news, features, and interviews with some of the biggest names in film and TV. On-site, you'll find me marveling at Marvel and providing analysis and room temperature takes on the newest films, Star Wars and, of course, anime. Outside of GR, I love getting lost in a good 100-hour JRPG, Warzone, and kicking back on the (virtual) field with Football Manager. My work has also been featured in OPM, ♑FourFourTwo, and Game Revolution.
