Netflix Sets 'The Body' Release Date for November 11
Netflix is making a brand-new TV show called 'The Body.'
The show is about a group of Catholic school girls who start having strange visions after a dance team event goes wrong.
These visions cause big excitement and worry all over their town.
Quinn Shephard created the show and also directs the first episode.
She says it is her most personal project, inspired by movies she loved growing up, like 'Carrie' and 'Mean Girls.'
The show will have eight episodes and will arrive on Netflix on November 11.
It has a big cast, including Nnamdi Asomugha, Sofia Wylie, and Geena Meszaros.
The creator calls it 'gritty camp,' which means it mixes fun, spooky, and dramatic teen storytelling.
Netflix set a November 11 release date for 'The Body,' an eight-episode series created by Quinn Shephard.
The show follows badly-behaved Catholic school girls whose prophetic visions trigger mass hysteria after a dance-team initiation goes wrong.
Shephard directs the premiere and serves as showrunner, describing the series as 'gritty camp' and a raunchy teen psychodrama with a dash of Catholic horror.
The ensemble cast includes Kristina Bogic, Nnamdi Asomugha, Sofia Wylie, Geena Meszaros, Gabby Windey, and Marcel Ruiz, among others.
Shephard called the project her 'most personal' yet, drawing influence from '90s and Y2K teen movies, erotic thrillers, and the Salem witch trials.
