Castle Rock: Shameless's Noel Fisher Moves to Hulu Psychological-Horror Series

For a town with a reputation like Castle Rock, you'd think people would be fighting to get out — but Shameless's Noel Fisher is joining the cast of Hulu's psychological-horror drama series from J.J. Abrams and Stephen King, as well as and creators/executive producers/writers Sam Shaw and Dustin Thomason.

Combining a number of King's works into a shared universe narrative based around the famed (and infamous) fictional town, Castle Rock's 10-episode first season also stars Andre Holland, Melanie Lynskey, Bill Skarsgård, Sissy Spacek, Jane Levy, Scott Glenn, Terry O'Quinn, Chosen Jacobs, and Allison Tolman. 

Fisher's (The Long Road Home, Fonzo) Zalewski is a Shawshank prison guard who finds himself embroiled with the discovery of a dark and mysterious inmate — a discovery that will impact the entire town of Castle Rock.

A psychological-horror series set in the Stephen King multiverse, Castle Rock is an original story that combines the mythological scale and intimate character storytelling of King's best-loved works, weaving an epic saga of darkness and light, played out on a few square miles of Maine woodland. Castle Rock stars Andre Holland, Melanie Lynskey, Bill Skarsgard, Jane Levy and Sissy Spacek.

Levy is on-board as Jackie, the death-obsessed self-appointed historian of Castle Rock and (possible) ally for Henry; and O'Quinn has been tapped to play Dale Lacy, described as a "pillar of the community" in Castle Rock.
