‘Let The Right One In’ Trailer: Showtime’s Series Remake Of The Kid Vampire Film Premieres On October 9

Does the world need another remake of “Let The Right One In“?  Tomas Alfredson‘s 2008 film was already an adaptation of a 2004 novel, and then the American remake “Let Me In” hit theaters in 2010. Make no mistake, it’s still a chilling story and an intriguing take on vampire lore, but is telling it again necessary?

Showtime seems to think so, but don’t worry: their upcoming series “Let The Right One In” isn’t a remake so much as a reimagining. Inspired by John Ajvide Lindqvist‘s original 2004 novel, the series follows a father and his vampire daughter as they return home to New York City to find a cure for her illness.

Here’s the show’s official synopsis, courtesy of Showtime:

Mark and his daughter Eleanor’s lives were changed forever 10 years earlier when she was turned into a vampire. Seemingly frozen in time at the age of 12, Eleanor has lived a closed-in life, able to go out only at night, while her father does his best to provide her with the human blood she needs to stay alive. Now they’ve returned home to New York City, desperate to find a cure. Inspired by the acclaimed Swedish novel and film, their emotionally charged and terrifying story turns a naturalistic lens on human frailty, strength, and compassion.

Demián Bichir stars as Mark, while Madison Taylor Baez stars as Eleanor. The series cast also includes Anika Noni Rose, Grace Gummer, Ian Foreman, Kevin Carroll, Nick Stahl, and Jacob Buster. Recurring cast members include Željko Ivanek, Fernanda Andrade, Jammie Saito, and Josh Wingate.

Showtime subscribers who love “Dexter” and “Yellowjackets” will probably find something to like with “Let The Right One In.” The show premieres on-demand and on streaming on October 7 before airing on Showtime on October 9. Watch the trailer below.
