Hail To The King, Baby! Evil Dead Series Will Star Bruce Campbell

Some big news came out of San Diego Comic Con… especially if you’re a fan of Sam Raimi‘s horror work, and in particular the cult classic Evil Dead series of movies.

Sam Raimi confirmed that he and his brother Ted were working on an Evil Dead TV series, and that somehow, somewhere Bruce Campbell was going to be involved. This, in itself was enough to set the internet on a downward spiral of “OMFGWTF!” etc.

However Bruce Campbell has taken to Twitter, and in response to fan’s tweet that he should be the star, he had this to say:

“@DeaditeBill: Only if @GroovyBruce is the STAR of this new tv series will I accept. That’s the plan. pic.twitter.com/m7EkBFpl1b

Now remember that Campbell was happy to star in Evil Dead IV… and remember how long we’ve been waiting for it… and then calm yourself down.

Just because the perfect star is willing to be involved in the movie/series (Ryan Reynolds and Deadpool, anyone?), doesn’t mean that it’ll actually happen.

Still, we live in quiet hope that our dream will be fulfilled, and the King will kick some ass with his boomstick once more.
