Sci-Fi Bulletin: Exploring the Universes of SF, Fantasy, Horror and Spy-fi!

Showtime’s adaptation of Let the Right One In has rounded out its cast.

Madison Taylor Baez (pitcured), Kevin Carroll, Jacob Buster and Ian Foreman are joining Demián Bichir, Anika Noni Rose and Grace Gummer. Bichir plays Mark, a husband and father whose perfect life is thrown into disarray when his daughter Eleanor (Baez) is bitten by a mysterious creature who vanishes into a night. When Eleanor returns to New York City, her condition brings out a strange vampiric power as she meets a friend who reignites her desire to regain her humanity.

Carroll will play Zeke Dawes, a successful restaurant owner who is friends with Mark and knows about Eleanor’s condition. Buster plays Peter, a sweet and funny boy who suffers from the same condition as Eleanor. When his father tests a potential cure on him, it backfires and releases a terrifying monster. Foreman will play quiet and sensitive Isaiah, who befriends Eleanor but has no idea the threat she poses.

The series is “inspired” by  John Ajvide Lindqvist’s novel and Tomas Alfredson’s movie.
