Aquaman's James Wan and Yellowstone's Ian McCulloch are setting up a new series at Peacock
James Wan is set to produce a new, as-yet-untitled mystery-horror series for Peacock. The Aquaman and The Conjuring director, who recently inked a deal with Blumhouse, will collaborate with writer and executive producer Robert McCulloch on the project, which has secured a straight-to-series order on the NBCUniversal-owned streaming platform.
The series follows a disparate group of people on a ranch who must come together in the face of a mysterious threat. Stinger takes place during a single twenty-four-hour period in Inferno, Texas. Inferno is a town in trouble, driven to the brink by racial tension, gang violence, and a collapsing economy. But things can always get worse, and they do so with astonishing speed.
"We are so excited for this adrenalized thriller about a group of people overcoming adversity, that's both entertaining and emotional," said Lisa Katz, President Scripted Content, NBCUniversal Television and Streaming."We know this upcoming drama will be in expert hands with James Wan, E.L. Katz, Ian McCulloch, our partners at UCP, and is sure to be a binge-worthy mystery for Peacock audiences.

Katz and a bestselling novel by Robert McCammon, you've got all the ingredients for an incredible series," said Beatrice Springborn, President, UCP."We're ecstatic to partner with Peacock to bring this thrill ride of a show to their audience." 0commentsWan's films have generated billions in revenue for Warner Bros.
