A brief tease of Guillermo Del Toroโ€™s Cabinet of Curiosities

The first teaser for the horror anthology doesnโ€™t really show much of what you can expect, but it does detail some of the key names behind the project.

The easer, meanwhile, reveals some new cast members: Eric Andrรฉ, Sofia Boutella, Ismael Cruz Cรณrdova, Rupert Grint, Kate Micucci, and Charlyne Yi.

The first teaser for season 3 of Locke and Key

Locke and Key took a darker turn for its second season, and based on the latest trailer, it appears that trend will continue in season 3.

Season 3 will mark the end of the series, and it debuts on August 10th.

Netflix picked up Manifest โ€” one of a surprisingly large number of shows about disappearing planes โ€” for a fourth season, and debuted a trailer for the series at Geeked Week.

All of Us Are Dead renewed for season 2

The first season of All of Us Are Dead did something pretty remarkable: it was a zombie story that felt fresh and interesting. So itโ€™s great news to learn that a second season is in the works, though there arenโ€™t any details yet, nor a release timeframe.

The first teaser for 1899
