Yesterday, we gave you a first look at D.J. Cotrona and Zane Holtz, who will play the Gecko brothers in the upcoming From Dusk Till Dawn TV Series on El Rey Network, a new cable network founded by Robert Rodriguez. Surprisingly, today, the trailer has officially landed in the grip of our bloody hands, including the debut date. According to an announcement, the 10-episode series will begin on Tuesday, March 11, 2014 at 9:00 P.M., which will be available on Comcast, DirecTV and Time Warner Cable.
From Dusk Till Dawn is Rodriguez’s first film adapted into a TV series, which is expected to deepen the tone of the first film, adding new characters and backstories and expands the Mesoamerican mythology behind the creatures inside the club, previously known as the Titty Twister.
A Sin City series is also in development by The Weinstein Company with Rodriguez and Frank Miller involved.
