Chapelwaite S1
Oscar winner Adrien Brody was nominated for Best Actor: Horror at the 2022 Critics Choice Super Awards for his performance as Captain Charles Boone in Chapelwaite. The horror series is based on the short story Jerusalem’s Lot by Stephen King (It, The Shining, Carrie).
In the 1850s, Captain Charles Boone relocates his family to his ancestral home in the small, sleepy town of Preacher’s Corners in Maine. Charles will soon have to confront the secrets of his family’s history and fight to end the darkness.
Nominated by the American and Canadian Society of Cinematographers, Chapelwaite also stars multi-award-winner Emily Hampshire (Schitt’s Creek) as Rebecca Morgan, while Jordan Poole was nominated for a Young Artist Award as Emory Spicer.
