Cinemax's 'Outcast': Patrick Fugit, Robert Kirkman Drama Gets 2015 SDCC Poster!

After scaring the minds of viewers with The Walking Dead, creator Robert Kirkman continues the scarefest at the 2015 San Diego Comic-Con with his latest Cinemax horror/exorcism, Outcast. Check out lead Patrick Fugit (Gone Girl) in the 2015 SDCC Poster!

As we previously mentioned, from Skybound, an imprint of Image Comics, the new horror series features demons as the opposing supernatural force of nature. In the best-selling first issue, Kyle Barnes (Fugit) had been plagued by demonic possession all his life. Desperate for answers, Kyle's investigation will unexpectedly cause the end of the world.

We also mentioned, Philip Glenister (Life On Mars) has the role of Reverend Anderson, a hard drinking and gambling West Virginian evangelical preacher. Child actor Gabriel Bateman has been cast as 8-year-old Joshua Austin. Known as Reese's therapist in Person of Interest, Wrenn Schmidt is Megan Holter, Kyle's adopted sister and a child psychologist. 

Filmmaker Adam Wingard, who has made horror fans happy with his flicks, The Guest, and You're Next, has signed on to direct the pilot.

According to IGN, the Outcast panel will take place on Saturday, July 11th at 3:00pm in Room 6DE. Among those at the panel will be creators and executive producers Robert Kirkman and Chris Black. Cast members include Fugit (Kyle Barnes), Glenister (Reverend Anderson) and Schmidt (Megan Holter), and two surprise special guest panelists.

Convention-goers will be able to pick up an Outcast issue at the Skybound booth (#2729). The Comic Con cover features Fugit recreating the image of Kyle seen on the first issue. The SDCC Outcast poster tagline states: "Possession is just the beginning."

Kumail Nanjiani (Silicon Valley's Dinesh Chugtai) will moderate the panel. After the panel, don't miss the Autograph signing at 5:45 pm, which will be held at the Warner Bros. booth.
