The premiere of A&E’s “Damien” is now only days away (March 7). A&E has now released a new addition to the long list of teasers, titled “Beast.” The teaser is a mix of footage from the new series and The Omen.
The series follows Damien Thorn, the child from the 1976 horror classic The Omen, as an adult. Damien is about to have his life turned upside-down as he learns who he is: the anti-Christ.
Bradley James (iZombie) will star as Damien. Omid Abtahi (Argo) co-stars along with Megalyn Echikunwoke (The Following), David Meunier (Aquarius), Scott Wilson (The Walking Dead), and Barbara Hershey, who played the role of Lorraine Lambert in Insidious: Chapter 2.
I have to admit, when I first learned about the series back last year, I was a little skeptical. But now, I’m intrigued. The trailers look great, and the show has a fantastic cast. I’m not sure how long of a run Damien will have, I mean how long can the end of the world last? But I’ll be tuning in to find out. Be sure to catch the premiere of Damien on A&E on March 7 at 10/9c.
