Robert Kirkman, creator of "The Walking Dead" comic book series and executive producer of the AMC TV series, has landed a deal with Cinemax to air his newest TV venture "Outcast", based on his upcoming demonic 'exorcism' comic book series.
"...'Kyle Barnes' has been plagued by possession since he was a child. Now an adult, he embarks on a spiritual journey to find answers, but what he uncovers could mean the end of life on Earth as we know it..."
Kirkman will write the pilot script and executive produce with Circle of Confusion's David Alpert.
"Despite the success of 'The Walking Dead', 'Outcast' is only my second foray into the horror genre," said Kirkman. I think 'Kyle Barnes' is every bit as compelling as 'Rick Grimes' and demonic possession is way scarier than zombies -- so this is going to be fun."
