Taylor Kitsch and Michael Shannon face off in the trailer for 'Waco: The Aftermath.'
Extremism is an all too familiar term and Showtime is bringing onscreen, one of the times wherein religious extremism festered and got out of control, consuming people in its part. The network has released a first-look trailer for Waco: The Aftermath, the follow-up to the 2018 limited series, Waco. The sequel had initially been produced for Paramount+ but will now debut on Showtime.
The first-look teaser begins with a meeting of Branch Davidian sect members wherein its leader, David Koresh continues his indoctrination, making his victims believe that somehow, he was acting at the behest of a higher power. “You’ve looked to me to be your leader,” he says. “To guide you on this journey. But I’m no leader, I’m a follower just like you. God has instructed me to stay here and wait for his son.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY With ever-intensifying foreboding music, there are tense scenes of normal, happy people soon sucked into this sphere of delusion and brainwashing that soon leads to fiery carnage with casualties. Then comes a scary warning, “Waco has united them by a common enemy – us.” This perhaps is the realization that led to the unfurling of the tragic events at Mount Carmel that began on February 28, 1993.
101 Studios and Spyglass produce the series which sees Drew Dowdle and John Erick Dowdle return as showrunners. The pair will then serve as executive producers alongside Shannon, Kitsch, Andrew Gettens, and Lauren Mackenzie. Asides from the aforementioned Shannon, the cast for Waco: The Aftermath includes John Leguizamo, Giovanni Ribisi, David Costabile, J. Smith Cameron, John Hoogenakker, Keean Johnson, and Abbey Lee.
