BATES MOTEL TV Series Promo Poster
A&E has released the first promo poster for their seriial thriller, Bates Motel, which was inspired by Alfred Hitchcock's 1960 classic, Psycho. The show tells the story of Bates’ dark, twisted past, from childhood through his teen years. It will chronicle how his mother, Norma, and her lover screwed Norman up, shaping him into the insane serial killer that he became.
Vera Farmiga (Up in the Air, The Departed) will play Norma Louise Bates, who has been described as "a complicated, passionate and compelling woman who is smart, multidimensional and always capable of surprising people."
The series is being developed by Lost's Carlton Cuse and Friday Night Lights' Kerry Ehrin. Cuse had this to say in a statement,
We are incredibly excited to start production on Bates Motel. We think our take on the Bates family will both be surprising and subvert expectations. We can't wait for people to check in.
I'm excited about this. I hope it turns out as good as I imagine it being. Will you be checking this series out? Have you ever stayed at a creepy ass hotel that you thought you might die in?
