'Rosemary's Baby' Prequel 'Apartment 7A’ Coming As This Halloween’s Exclusive Horror Prequel Pic

It was unclear which adaptation it was a prequel to, but it starred Jackson White, Henry Thomas and David Duchovny among others. While the release of Paramount+-original narrative films looks to be less consistent than last year, the platform has announced that there’s at least still going to be one to serve a similar purpose, and it’s another prequel to a horror classic: Rosemary’s Baby, titled Apartment 7A .

Natasha Marc And Rob Kirkland Set Returns To 'Mayor Of Kingstown' For Season 3

The Taylor Sheridan-created series Mayor of Kingstown will be welcoming back two characters for its third season, currently filming in Pittsburgh, who haven’t been seen since season 1: Natasha Marc as Cherry and Rob Kirkland as Police Captain Walter. 

Marc last appeared as Cherry in the ninth episode of the first season “The Lie of the Truth”, while Kirkland last appeared in-series in the following episode, though he also crossed into the fifth season of Yellowstone.

Complications arise when a familiar face from his incarcerated past threatens to undermine the Mayor’s attempts to keep the peace.

Marc’s credits include The Good Lord BirdThe Deadliest LieThe Fight That Never Ends, Dutch and its sequel Dutch II: Angel's Revenge. On TV, she’s been seen in The RookieBallersTimeless and American Soul. Kirkland meanwhile has appeared on Criminal Minds and Monk.

Co-created by Hugh Dillon and Sheridan, Mayor of Kingstown centers on the McLusky family, who act as power brokers in Kingstown, Michigan, where prison is the only profitable thing in town as they attempt to bring order and justice to a town that has neither instead overrun with systemic racism, corruption and inequality. The series also co-creator Dillon as Kingstown Police Detective Ian Ferguson, Taylor Handley as youngest McLuskey brother Kyle, Emma Laird as escort Iris, Tobi Bamtefa as Crips leader Deverin "Bunny" Washington, Derek Webster as ally KPD Detective Stevie, Nishi Munshi as Kyle’s wife Tracy, Hamish Allan-Headley as Sgt. Robert Sawyer, Aidan Gillen as Russian mobster Milo Sunter, and the newly-promoted Michael Beach as Kareem Moore, one of the town’s prison guard captains.
