An old TV is also visible, which has a framed picture of originalCreepshowdirector George A. Romero on top.Walking Deadexecutive producer Greg Nicotero is behind the Shudder series and one can tell he is making a tribute to what Romero and Stephen King started in the 1980s.
Shudder will be on hand to give out these excellentCreepshowposters at Comic-Con and they will be available while supplies last.Showrunner Greg Nicotero, author Joe Hill, and stars Adrienne Barbeau, Giancarlo Esposito, Tricia Helfer, and DJ Qualls will all be in attendance at the panel, which begins at 5:45 PM on Friday. The event is set to take place at Room 6BCF and will be moderated by The Los Angeles Times' reporter Jen Yamato.
Shudder’sCreepshowTV series will consist of twelve stories told in six episodes. In addition to showing off footage from the show atComic-Con, it is also believed we will finally get a firm release date too. We’ve been getting plenty of updates about the show in terms of episodes, directors, and cast, but what we all really want to know is when Greg Nicotero and Shudder are going to deliver the goods. Thankfully, we should find out on Friday evening after the panel finishes up. Halloween seems like the perfect time to release the show, but that’s purely speculation at this point.
