A&E’s new series, Damien, premiered last night. In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, series showrunner Glen Mazzara discussed the upcoming season and his plans for the future of the horror drama.
Damien is based off the classic 1976 horror film, The Omen.
When asked about the future of the show, Mazzara said the season one finale will be “very surprising” for viewers:
I have to say I think that finale is one of the best episodes of TV I’ve ever worked on. I’m so excited for people to see it. When you see how everything in season one comes together in that finale in a very surprising way, it’s going to kick ass.”
He added that he does have a “game plan” if the series is renewed for more seasons by A&E:
I do have a game plan and I’m not sure A&E or Fox would want me to say because I don’t want to box them into something. But we do have one and hopefully we’ll get the opportunity to tell that story. There’s a lot of story and what’s fun about writing a psychological thriller like this is that there’s not only twists and turns with the characters but there’s obviously twists and turns with the plot. If we get to tell the full story the audience will be surprised because there’s a lot of unique territory we can go into that hasn’t been told with this type of character before.”
What do you think? Did you watch the series premiere of Damien? Will you watch more?
Yes Damien really did come together and it really did work I so can’t wait for Season 2 to start please do not Cancelled it Renew it that it is a go go ahand
very good. Hope to see more episodes. Thanks for an interesting program. I like it better than Bates.
Please, please, PLEASE renew this show! I binged watched and I’m now hooked! If they cancel it, try to get it on Netflix or Hulu! I’d pay for a subscription to continue watching this show.
This is one of new favorites… The Omen is still one of my favorite thrillers and this show has paid its respects the right way. The actors are perfectly creepy and the plot only thickens with every show, there are so many avenues to go with this show there is no reason it should be canceled.
This is a gr8 show! I am watching to see how closely it follows the Bible. Of course the Bible does not give a lot of details, but the show is using gr8 imagination to fill in what the Bible does not. I am looking forward to Season 2!
Very good show pls don’t cancel I’m on the edge of my seat every time I’ve seen it LOVE IT
I love the show and I haven’t miss any since it first came on air. Please renew it.
The show was so good he a great actor I watch merlin from first episode to the last episode please renew it
I really hope this show is renewed. Absolutely love Bradley James (he was also so wonderful in Merlin). The season finale left us begging for more
I personally loved this whole series!!! Bring it back for lots more seasons!!! The finale last night was awesome 😀
Damien should definitely be renewed for a second season! It is a slow burner, but that’s what’s great about it.The viewer keeps begging for answers with each episode, and the show culminates into an explosive, powerful ending with the season finale. I LOVED the season finale and thought it was extremely great television! I would love to see where the show goes in a second season, as Damien has now fully matured into the Anit-Christ. Great writing, and cool plots! I am “praying ” for a second season!
This is a good show . The finale was one I f the best I have seen. It left me wanting to see moe. Can’t wait to see how this whole thing ends up. All I can say, is superb. Great writing.
Please please please bring in season 2! I loveeee this show! I was really surprised by the ending. Only thing I would change is to make the show last longer. I can’t get enough lol!
Love the show Damien m, can’t wait for season 2!!
Please renew!!! I LOVE this show!!!!!
Please renew this show. Amazing!!! I love it and I’m sure I won’t be the only one crying if I don’t get to see more.
