The arrival of the latest creepy Stephen King adaptation is nigh! July 25 marked the premiere of Hulu's original series Castle Rock [1], which brings us into the stunning multiverse cultivated by the horror visionary through many different works. Over the course of 2018, we've slowly but surely been collecting details about the show [2]; we have to admit, we're more intrigued than ever to see how all the uneasiness plays out. With so many moving parts and sketchy characters appearing from the outset, we thought it prudent to go over the top players in the cast. Play close attention: there are quite a lot of Stephen King alums [3] who have made their way into the fold.

Bill Skarsgard as "Shawshank Prisoner"

The actual name of Skarsgard's character does not appear on Hulu's press site, nor does the rest of the internet seem to have a hint. We do know that Shawshank State Prison stems from a pretty popular King work, but that's about it.

Melanie Lynskey as Molly Strand

So far, we know that Molly runs the real estate business in the town of Castle Rock and appears to have a touch of the shine, so you can assume she's seen her fair share of sh*t.

André Holland as Henry Matthews Deaver

Henry is a criminal law attorney who works in Texas. He returns to his hometown, Castle Rock, when he gets a mysterious call from the Shawshank State Prison.

Sissy Spacek as Ruth Deaver

Ruth is Henry's adoptive mother who she suffers from dementia.

Jane Levy as Jackie

We don't know much about this mysterious no-last-name Jackie character, but she's pretty plucky and strong-willed, and close friends with Molly. She's also taken a keen interest in Henry — what is she up to?

Terry O'Quinn as Dale Lacy

Dale is the former warden of Shawshank State Penitentiary, and his brutal, final act is what kicks off the series.

Scott Glenn as Alan Pangborn

Nothing like the last name "Pangborn" to ring some alarm bells, am I right? Alan is the former sheriff of Castle Rock. He's retired now, if you hadn't guessed.

Noel Fisher as Dennis Zalewski

Dennis is a guard at Shawshank State Penitentiary, and he's just as perplexed by the appearance of Bill Skarsgard's character as the rest of us. If the actor looks familiar, you've probably seen him [4] in Shameless!

Phyllis Somerville as Leanne Chambers

Leanne is a client of Henry's; she's been found guilty of murdering her husband and sentenced to death. We wonder how she'll factor into the rest of the season.

Josh Cooke as Reeves

Reeves is the deputy warden at Shawshank State Penitentiary, and is played by Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt alum Josh Cooke.

Charlie Tahan as Dean Merrill

Not only is Dean the local drug dealer, but he provides Molly with her own prescription drugs. You might know the actor from his role as the Scarecrow in Gotham.
