STARZ's 'Shining Vale' Episode 3 sneak peek alert
The competition is fierce when it comes to streaming amazing content but STARZ is on a non-stop tear with the mind-blowing shows. From everything in the ‘Power’ universe to the much-needed return of series like ‘American Gods’ and ‘P-Valley,’ the latest addition to the line-up is ‘Shining Vale’ and Courteney Cox is out here killing.
With the new series fully launched and not showing any signs of slowing down, the sneak peek from episode three - ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ - sucks you right into the fun. Peep some details on the series and watch the full clip.
From Jeff Astrof (“Trial & Error,” “Ground Floor”) and Sharon Horgan (“Divorce,” “Catastrophe”), “Shining Vale” tells the story of a dysfunctional family that moves from the city to a small town into a house in which terrible atrocities have taken place. But no one seems to notice except for Pat (Cox), who’s convinced she’s either depressed or possessed – turns out, the symptoms are exactly the same. Kinnear plays her ever-optimistic husband, Terry Phelps, whose patience and self-control will be tested like never before. Mira Sorvino plays Rosemary, who is either Pat’s alter ego, a split personality, her “id”, her muse, or a demon trying to possess her. Judith Light will play “Joan,” Pat's (Cox) Lithium-infused mother, who has long battled mental illness, and her daughter... (who she blames for her mental illness). Joan is vain and hyper-critical, taking any opportunity to recall her prized youth, or belittle Pat. Of all the horrors that Pat faces, becoming Joan is the most frightening -- and most real.
Cox plays the lead role of Patricia “Pat” Phelps, with Kinnear playing her ever-optimistic husband, Terry Phelps, whose patience and self-control will be tested like never before. Mira Sorvino plays Rosemary, who is either Pat’s alter ego, a split personality, her id, her muse, or a demon trying to possess her. Merrin Dungey plays Kam, Pat’s oldest friend and book editor. Gus Birney and Dylan Gage also star as Pat and Terry’s teenage kids, Gaynor and Jake.
“Shining Vale” is executive produced by Jeff Astrof from Other Shoe Productions, Sharon Horgan and Clelia Mountford (“Motherland,” “This Way Up,”) from Merman, Aaron Kaplan (“The Chi,” “The Neighborhood”) and Dana Honor (“A Million Little Things,” “The Unicorn”) from Kapital Entertainment. Courteney Cox is producer. Astrof wrote the pilot teleplay, from a story by Horgan & Astrof. The series is produced by Warner Bros. Television and Lionsgate Television in association with Other Shoe Productions, Merman and Kapital Entertainment.
