As a gamer with a penchant for action-packed narratives and a soft spot for the undead, I can hardly contain my excitement over SYFY’s upcoming series adaptation of Revival. With the addition of CM Punk to the cast, this show is shaping up to be an absolute knockout, much like one of his legendary wrestling matches.
SYFY’s series adaptation of the Image comic book ‘Revival’ is progressing smoothly, as actor and WWE wrestler CM Punk has been cast in a recurring role, which was confirmed by the network on Thursday. Aaron B. Koontz, co-creator, co-showrunner, and executive producer, hinted on Instagram that viewers aren’t prepared for what’s to come, saying “You all aren’t ready.” “I repeat,” he added. “You all still aren’t ready.
Fellow creator, showrunner, and EP Luke Boyce was also pretty jazzed about the news, writing, “Folks, we be cooking with some REAL spicy ingredients” on his Instagram story. “It’s gonna be SOOO GOOD! Welcome to the show, CM Punk!”
Born as Phil Brooks, the punk rocker has been added to a lineup that was previously announced, featuring Melanie Scrofano (“Wynonna Earp”), Romy Weltman (“Murdoch Mysteries”), David James Elliott (“Mad Men”), Andy McQueen (“Mrs. Davis”), and Steven Ogg (“The Walking Dead”).
For More on Zombies
As a devoted horror enthusiast, I can’t help but reflect on some unforgettable endings in cinema history. The post-credit scene in “Dawn of the Dead” remains one of the darkest and most shocking twists I’ve ever witnessed.
Who is CM Punk playing in SYFY’s Revival TV series?
As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but feel a thrill at the thought of Punk stepping into the limelight. While specifics about his character remain shrouded in mystery, his captivating on-screen charisma is certain to infuse the show with an extra dose of allure and edge. Beyond his illustrious WWE career, this multitalented individual has graced our screens in a variety of roles, including those in Mayans M.C., Heels, The Girl on the Third Floor, and Jakob’s Wife.
What is Revival about?
Originating from the minds behind “Scare Package” and “Revealer”, creators, screenwriters, and producers Koontz and Boyce present the unconventional zombie series titled “Revival”. Set in the quaint Wisconsin town of Wausau, the story unfolds as the tranquil rural lifestyle is disrupted when the deceased inexplicably return to life. However, these reanimated corpses don’t mindlessly crave human flesh like their counterparts from George Romero’s universe; instead, they retain thoughts and behaviors from their previous lives. Actress Scrofano plays Dana Cypress, a dedicated single mother and police officer who is investigating a gruesome murder case in which both the living and the recently-deceased are potential suspects.
Among the other characters, you’ll find “Em” Cypress, who is Dana’s younger sister; Sheriff Wayne Cypress, their father; Ramin, a CDC scientist investigating the zombie outbreak; and Blaine Abel, a pastor known for his fear-provoking sermons.
When will Revival premiere on SYFY?
SYFY hasn’t specified a definite release date for the show “Revival” as of now, with production starting in September. Executive producers on this project include Lance Samuels, Daniel Iron, Samantha Levine, Dan March, Greg Hemmings, Stephen Foster, along with Koontz and Boyce.
The Image comic that inspired the project was conceived by writer Tim Seely and artist Mike Norton.
