Prime Video’s ‘Carrie’ TV Show Adds 14 More Actors To Cast

The cast of Mike Flanagan’s upcoming TV adaptation of Stephen King’s Carrie for Prime Video is getting bigger.

Described as a “bold and timely reimagining” of King’s 1974 novel, which was first adapted for the screen in Brian De Palma’s 1976 film starring Sissy Spacek, the anticipated series just added 14 more actors to the cast, Deadline reported Tuesday.

Keeping in line with Flanagan’s previous works, six actors are veterans of Flanagan ensembles, including hits like The Haunting of Hill House, The Fall of the House of Usher, and Occulus, while the remaining eight stars are newcomers to the Flanaverse.

The 14 stars will appear in recurring guest star roles, though details of their characters are being kept underwraps. They join the previously announced Summer Howell as telekinetic teen Carrie White, Matthew Lillard as Principal Grayle, Samantha Sloyan as Carrie’s mother Margaret White, and Siena Agudong as Sue Snell. Alison Thornton, Thalia Dudek, Amber Midthunder, Josie Totah, Arthur Conti, and Joel Oulette are also attached.
