First Look At Robert Wisdom & June Carryl in Marvel’s Helstrom Series For Hulu
Hulu has released (via IGN) the first photos from Helstrom, the Marvel Television series coming to the streaming service in October. The live-action series is based on the popular comic book and will mark Marvel’s first foray into terror.
Based on the Marvel comic book characters created by Roy Thomas, Gary Friedrich, and John Romita Sr., Helstrom follows siblings and supposed serial killer offspring Daimon Helstrom (Tom Austen) and Ana Helstrom (Sydney Lemmon). Plagued by their family background, the Helstrom’s will pursue the world’s vilest of the vile — with some family drama of their own.
Daimon is a professor of ethics who moonlights as an exorcist. Daimon has no illusions about saving a world he has no patience for; he just hopes he can help a few of the people closest to him. In his battle against a hidden world, Daimon is determined to root out demons as they arise, and will not stop until they’re vanquished.
Ana runs a successful auction house and suffers no fools, but her true interest lies in hunting down those who hurt others. Traumatized by her father as a child, Ana is driven to rid the world of those like him, even as she secretly worries her father will return.
The series stars Tom Austen as Daimon, Sydney Lemmon as Ana, Elizabeth Marvel as Victoria Helstrom, Ariana Guerra as Gabriella Rosetta, Robert Wisdom as the Caretaker, June Carryl as Dr. Louise Hastings, and Alain Uy as Chris Yen.
The 10-episode first season of Marvel’s Helstrom is executive produced by Paul Zybszewski who will serve as showrunner. Marvel Television’s Jeph Loeb will also executive produce.
