Hulu on Friday, July 24, released the teaser of their upcoming show 'Helstrom' starring Tom Austen, Sydney Lemmon and Elizabeth Marvel as Daimon, Ana and their mother Victoria Helstrom. Before the panel at Comic-Con@Home, the streaming service debuted the first teaser and confirmed the release date of the show as of October 16 only to heighten the hype around it. The panel saw the presence of the cast members Austen, Lemmon, Marvel, Robert Wisdom, Ariana Guerra, June Carryl and Alain Uy and showrunner Paul Zbyszewski as they spoke about not only the show but also addressed the events that happened in real-life including adding their voice to the Black Lives Matters movement. 

The teaser of the show features Daimon and his sister Ana visiting their mother Victoria where Ana questions her about what she has released unto this world. Victoria seems quite satisfied with what she had done but Daimon and Ana take responsibility for their mother's action and the consequences this being that is released brings about a turn of events that the siblings never expected but had to fight. 



 

The cast discussed how each of their characters fit into the show that is based on Marvel comics. For instance, Austen revealed more about Daimon and Ana's dynamics and how despite being together and close they are still far apart in who they are and how they have dealt with the childhood trauma that was inflicted upon both of them. Zbyszewski, on the other hand, said that the show was based on the book 'Son of Satan' which narrates the story about the relationship with a father but he stressed that 'Helstrom' is more grounded in reality. The trailer also hinted at this with a still of a Helstrom family picture which has the father's face scratched out. 

Zbyszewski also said that this is horror but in essence, it is a family story about the family that we are born with and the one that we surround ourselves with. He also explained how the role of the Caretaker portrayed by Robert Wisdom was reinvented quite a bit and is very different from the character in the comic itself. 

Marvel, who plays Victoria in the show also explained how the role is chained by something that she cannot control. She said this is a story of a mother who loves her children but being shackled by something out of her control, separating her from her love and added that "It's Shakespearean".
