Syfy’s DAY OF THE DEAD Series Snags Cast & LEPRECHAUN RETURNS Director

Syfy’s Day of the Dead series has snagged Steven Kostanski (Leprechaun Returns, The Void) to direct the first four episodes starring Keenan Tracey (Bates Motel), Daniel Doheny (Alex Strangelove), Natalie Malaika (Fractured), Kristy Dinsmore (Vikings), and newcomer Morgan Holmstrom as series regulars.

Check out character descriptions HERE.

Production is currently underway in Vancouver on the 10-episode series which comes to us from Abbott Street Films and Cartel Entertainment (Creepshow).

Based on George A. Romero’s classic zombie film, Day of the Dead is the intense story of six strangers trying to survive the first 24 hours of an undead invasion. This ode to Romero’s famous flesh-eaters reminds us that sometimes all it takes to bring people together is a horde of hungry zombies trying to rip them apart.

Written by Jed Elinoff and Scott Thomas, Kostanski, Stan Spry, Jeff Holland, Drew Brown, Robert Dudelson, James Dudelson, and Jordan Kizwani executive produce.
