Created and written by Ryan J. Brown, the horror-comedy “Wreck” is coming soon from BBC Three, a slasher set aboard a cruise ship. Today BBC Three has released a brand new image gallery previewing the series, giving us a first look at the slasher maniac.
If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, well, it might want to kill you…
“Wreck” is being described as a tense thriller, mixing comedy with a slice of slasher, set aboard The Sacramentum cruise ship. The series follows 20-year-old new recruit, Jamie, as he infiltrates the 3000 strong crew in a desperate race to find his missing sister.
“She was working aboard the same vessel on a previous tour and vanished mid charter. Jamie is initiated into cruise life and gets a crash course on the tribes within the staff: the theatre kids, the mafias and the low-paid workers. For this overworked and underpaid crew, life below deck can be an odyssey of partying and excess… and they remain oblivious to the bloodthirsty murders taking place on board. Jamie is forced to turn detective and uncover the sinister truth.”
The cast includes Oscar Kennedy (“Ladhood”) as Jamie, Thaddea Graham (“The Irregulars”) as Vivian, Jack Rowan (“Noughts + Crosses”) as Danny, Harriet Webb (“I May Destroy You”) as Karen, Jodie Tyack (“The Window”) as Pippa, Louis Boyer as Sam, Anthony Rickman as Olly, Amber Grappy as Lauren, Diego Andres as Jerome, Peter Claffey as Cormac, Miya Ocego as Rosie, Warren James Dunning as Beaker, Ramanique Ahluwalia as Lily and Alice Nokes as Sophia.
Chris Baugh (Boys from County Hell) has directed and executive produced all six episodes.
The series will premiere at London’s Fright Fest on August 26th. Tickets can be purchased here. The series will launch on BBC Three and BBC iPlayer later this autumn.
Writer in the horror community since 2008. Editor in Chief of Bloody Disgusting. Owns Eli Roth's prop corpse from Piranha 3D. Has four awesome cats. Still plays with toys.
BBC Three Reveals First Look at “Wrecked,” a Horror-Comedy Slasher at Sea Series
BBC Headed Out to Sea for Upcoming Horror-Comedy Series “Wrecked”; Brutal Kills Promised!
It was announced a few years back that “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” was getting a small screen reboot – without Sarah Michelle Gellar – but what’s the latest on that project?
According to TV line, the “Buffy” reboot has been put “on pause,” which comes as no big surprise given we haven’t heard a peep about the project in a couple years now.
TV Line’s scoop comes courtesy of executive producer Gail Berman, who provided the update in today’s new episode of The Hollywood Reporter‘s TV’s Top 5 podcast.
Midnight, Texas creator Monica Owusu-Breen had been tapped as writer, executive producer and showrunner of the new “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” with the original series’ creator and showrunner Joss Whedon set to executive produce alongside original series’ exec producers Gail Berman, Fran Kazui and Kaz Kazui as well as Joe Earley from Berman’s Jackal Group.
“The new version will be contemporary, building on the mythology of the original,” we were told in 2018.
“Like our world, it will be richly diverse, and like the original, some aspects of the series could be seen as metaphors for issues facing us all today,” the producers had teased.
This year marks the 25th anniversary(!) of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer.”
Created by Joss Whedon, the original series ran from 1997 to 2003.
