Netflix has officially set the release date for “The Body,” which draws inspiration from ‘90s and Y2K teen movies such as “Carrie” and “Jennifer’s Body.”
Created by Quinn Shephard, a group of unholy Catholic school girls start to have prophecy-like visions that send their town into a panic after a dance-team initiation takes a turn for the worse.
The eight-episode series will release on the streaming platform Nov. 11 with Kristina Bogic (“Playing Gracie Darling”) as Anya Butler, Sara Boustany (“PEN15”) as Elise Zakaria, Geena Meszaros (“The Order”) as Lisbeth Anderson, Nnamdi Asomugha (“The Knife”) as Father Franklin, Louisa Krause (“King Kelly”) as Maddie Delaney, Jackson Kelly (“The Pitt”) as Leo Anderson and Sofia Wylie (“The Map That Leads To You”) as Grace Franklin.
Recurring cast members include Kyra Pierce, Phallon Pierce, Marcel Ruiz, Orlando Norman, Gabby Windey, Ashley Madekwe, Motell Foster, Cale Ambrozic, Anna Tierney, Chloe Longname, Sarah Abbott, Emily Roman, Michela Luci, Bella Neuspiel, Julia Lowe and Christine Solomon.
Shephard also serves as showrunner and director. Executive producing are Peter Chernin, Amy Israel and Josh Stern for North Road; Riley Keough, Gina Gammell and Sacha Ben Harroche for Felix Culpa; and Blair Breard.
