The Stand Trailer

CBS All Access‘ The Stand (2020) TV mini-series trailer has been released and stars Greg Kinnear, Heather Graham, Eion Bailey, Katherine McNamara, and Hamish Linklater.

Plot Synopsis

The Stand‘s plot synopsis: based on the book by Stephen King, The Stand deals with the way “the world ends: with a nanosecond of computer error in a Defense Department laboratory and a million casual contacts that form the links in a chain letter of death. And here is the bleak new world of the day after, a world stripped of its institutions and emptied of 99 percent of its people. A world in which a handful of panicky survivors choose sides — or are chosen. A world in which good rides on the frail shoulders of the 108-year-old Mother Abigail — and the worst nightmares of evil are embodied in a man with a lethal smile and unspeakable powers: Randall Flagg, the dark man.”

More on the plot:

The limited drama takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where a deadly influenza-like pandemic has decimated the population. The last remaining survivors are splintered into two bitterly feuding factions as they are forced to face each other in a final biblical confrontation between good and evil.
