Courteney Cox & Greg Kinnear Join Starz’s Horror Comedy Pilot SHINING VALE
Courteney Cox (Scream) and Greg Kinnear (The Stand) will star in Starz’s horror-comedy pilot in Shining Vale from Jeff Astrof (Trial & Error) and Sharon Horgan (Divorce).
Shining Vale follows a dysfunctional family that moves from the city to a small town into a house in which terrible atrocities have taken place. But no one seems to notice except for Pat (Cox), who’s convinced she’s either depressed or possessed – turns out, the symptoms are exactly the same.
Kinnear will play Cox’s husband.
Deadline says: He assumed he was married to the perfect wife until she had an affair with their young handyman, destroying the kitchen island, and maybe his marriage. Ever the optimist, Terry is willing to do whatever it takes to keep his family together, including intensive couples therapy and cashing in all his assets to buy an Old Victorian house in the suburbs of Connecticut, trading his 12-minute commute for a 90-minute train ride into the city. Despite his brave face and can-do spirit, it is clear that he has some deep-seated resentment, which occasionally peeks out as rage. Especially when his wife tells him she believes their new house is haunted. Terry’s challenge will be to ride out whatever is going on with Pat, without completely losing his own mind in the process.
Dearbhla Walsh will direct and executive produce the pilot.
