AMC Networks announced today that Dan Stevens will lead and executive produce the third installment of the lauded horror anthology, The Terror: Devil in Silver.
Based on The Devil in Silver, the celebrated novel by Victor LaValle, The Terror: Devil in Silver stars Dan Stevens (Abigail, Downton Abbey, Zero Day) as Pepper, a working-class moving man who, through a combination of bad luck and a bad temper, finds himself wrongfully committed to New Hyde Psychiatric Hospital, an institution filled with the people society would rather forget.
There, he must contend with patients who work against him, doctors who harbor grim secrets, and perhaps even the very Devil himself. As Pepper navigates a hellscape where nothing is as it seems, he finds that the only path to freedom is to face down the entity which thrives on the suffering within New Hyde’s walls — but doing so may prove that the worst demons of all live inside him.
Writing for the six episodes of this horror anthology’s third installment is led by executive producers Chris Cantwell (Halt and Catch Fire) and author Victor LaValle. Emmy®-nominated director Karyn Kusama (Jennifer’s Body, Destroyer, Yellowjackets) also executive produces and will direct the first two episodes.
Said Dan Stevens:
“I’m thrilled to be a part of The Terror: Devil in Silver. This series is a dark symphony of psychological horror and gripping drama, set to rock the audience. Victor LaValle, Christopher Cantwell, and this incredible team have crafted a unique and twisted dance of devils and shadows. I look forward to delivering something epic that will echo through the halls like an iron bell.”
The executive producing team for The Terror: Devil in Silver includes Ridley Scott and David W. Zucker for Scott Free Productions, Alexandra Milchan and Scott Lambert for Emjag Productions, Guymon Casady (Entertainment 360), Dan Stevens, and Brooke Kennedy.
The Terror: Devil in Silver will premiere on AMC and AMC+ with six episodes in 2025 (date tba). Stay tuned for updates.
The first two seasons of The Terror focused on a British naval expedition stuck in the ice while searching for the Northwest Passage, and events in a Japanese internment camp during World War II, respectively.
