Weird Dark Trailer for Showtime Series ON BECOMING A GOD IN CENTRAL FLORIDA Starring Kirsten Dunst

We’ve got a strange little teaser trailer for you for an upcoming Showtime series called On Becoming a God in Central Florida. The series stars Kirsten Dunst (Spider-Man, Fargo), Théodore Pellerin (The OA, Genesis), Beth Ditto (Don’t Worry, He Wont Get Far On Foot), Mel Rodriguez (The Watch, Little Miss Sunshine), and Ted Levine (The Silence of the Lambs).

Deadline reports the following rundown for the series:

Set in a small Orlando-adjacent town in 1992, On Becoming A God in Central Floridafollows Krystal Stubbs (Dunst), a minimum-wage water park employee who lies, schemes and cons her way up the ranks of Founders American Merchandise (FAM) — the cultish, flag-waving, multibillion-dollar pyramid scheme that drove her to ruin in the first place, run by the powerful Obie Garbeau II (Levine). Determined to make a better life for herself, Krystal dives deep into FAM and develops a tangled relationship with FAM’s most loyal and fanatical follower Cody (Pellerin), until her business begins to affect those closest to her, including Ernie (Rodriguez), her affable water park boss, and his FAM-skeptic wife Bets (Ditto).

That sounds like a super interesting premise and like a wacky wild ride! I will be checking out the series for sure. Check out the trailer below and let us know if you’ll be tuning in to watch On Becoming a God in Central Florida on Showtime on August 25, 2019.
