Robert Kirkman’s ‘Outcast’ Ordered To Series!

Briefly: Robert Kirkman’s latest ongoing series, Outcast, was headed to television long before its first issue ever debuted, and today Cinemax officially ordered the project to series.

The show’s debut season will contain 10 episodes, with a pilot directed by You’re Next director Adam Wingard.

Outcast focuses on Kyle Barnes, a man who has been plagued by possession for his entire life, and begins a journey to discover why. Kyle will be portrayed by Gone Girl actor Patrick Fugit. Expanded cast includes Philip Glenister as Reverend Anderson, a hard drinking, hard gambling West Virginian evangelical preacher who believes he’s a soldier in God’s holy war against evil, and Gabriel Bateman as Joshua Austin, a young boy who lives across town who appears to be possessed by a demon and has a mysterious connection to Kyle.

The project is still without a release date, but we’ll be sure to let you know as soon as we know more!
