Dan Stevens has landed the lead role in The Terror Season 3, officially titled The Terror: Devil in Silver.
Deadline said Stevens will also serve as an executive producer.
Devil in Silver is based on the novel by author Victor LaValle, who co-wrote and executive produces the season with Chris Cantwell (Halt and Catch Fire). Ridley Scott is also an executive producer.
The season follows Pepper (Stevens), a working-class moving man who finds himself wrongfully committed to New Hyde Psychiatric Hospital. There, Pepper must contend with patients, doctors, and "perhaps even the very Devil himself."
"As Pepper navigates a hellscape where nothing is as it seems, he finds that the only path to freedom is to face down the entity which thrives on the suffering within New Hyde's walls -- but doing so may prove that the worst demons of all live inside him," an official synopsis reads.The Terror is a supernatural horror anthology series. Season 1 was based on the Dan Simmons novel of the same name, while Season 2, The Terror: Infamy, is inspired by the real-life Japanese-American internment camps during World War II.
