The original filmmakers (Sam Raimi) and star (Bruce Campbell) of the Evil Dead series are back with Ash and his adventures against the evil dead in a new television show, "Ash vs. Evil Dead" on Starz.
“Ash vs Evil Dead,” a 10-episode half-hour series, is the long-awaited follow-up to the classic horror film franchise The Evil Dead. The series is executive produced by Sam Raimi, Rob Tapert, and Bruce Campbell, the original filmmakers of the franchise, and Craig DiGregorio who serves as executive producer and showrunner.
Campbell will be reprising his role as Ash, the stock boy, aging lothario and chainsaw-handed monster hunter who has spent the last 30 years avoiding responsibility, maturity and the terrors of the Evil Dead. When a Deadite plague threatens to destroy all of mankind, Ash is finally forced to face his demons –personal and literal. Destiny, it turns out, has no plans to release the unlikely hero from its “Evil” grip.
Raimi directed the first episode of “Ash vs Evil Dead” that he wrote with Ivan Raimi, and Tom Spezialy. Raimi also serves as executive producer, with Rob Tapert and Bruce Campbell along with Craig DiGregorio who serves as executive producer/showrunner. Ivan Raimi co-executive produces and Aaron Lam and Chloe Smith serve as producers.
