Rohan Campbell, star of the upcoming Silent Night, Deadly Night reboot, has landed a series regular role on Netflix’s still untitled sea creature limited series.
The untitled series is created by showrunner Jesse McKeown (“The Umbrella Academy”).
The limited series follows a grizzled fisherman who must fight to protect his family, his community, and his vanishing way of life when a mysterious sea creature terrorizes a remote Newfoundland town.
Deadline, who announced the casting, notes that character details remain under wraps at this time.
Campbell joins previously announced cast members Mackenzie Davis (Terminator: Dark Fate, Speak No Evil), Charlie Heaton (“Stranger Things”), and Josh Hartnett (Trap) as the grizzled fisherman fighting to protect his community against the aquatic threat. Natasha Henstridge plays a character named Jan in the upcoming series, and Joshua Close will play Officer Jaxon Noseworthy.
McKeown will serve as showrunner and executive producer with Jessica Rhoades through her company, Pacesetter UK. Chris Hatcher, Hartnett, Jamie Childs, Louise Sutton, and Sharon Hall also executive produce.
The series’ writers include Karen Walton, Perry Chafe, and Natty Zavitz. Jamie Childs, Helen Shaver, and Stephen Dunn will direct.
Campbell broke out in David Gordon Green’s Halloween Ends as the troubled Corey Cunningham. The actor also appeared in this year’s The Monkey from Osgood Perkins. Next, Campbell will star as Billy in the upcoming remake of Silent Night, Deadly Night for Cineverse, which just unveiled a teaser trailer last weekend at San Diego Comic-Con.
Netflix had us at “sea creature.” Here’s to hoping this sea creature series gets a proper title soon. Stay tuned.
