Castle Rock Season 2 Episode 4
Is Pop a villain? That's a question I posed to actor Tim Robbins during the Castle Rock season 2 press junket a few weeks back. He played coy and didn't directly answer the question, but one thing is for sure: Pop is a complicated man with a guilty conscience.
With Castle Rock, showrunners Dustin Thomason and Sam Shaw get to rewrite the story of Pop Merrill, a character who first appeared in Stephen King's short story "The Sun Dog." Here, he isn't just a crime boss but a loving dad, a tough uncle, a loan shark, and seemingly a beloved member of the Castle Rock community. He even helps Somali immigrants start their own businesses in Jerusalem's Lot, a town that's generally unhappy with the arrival of these foreigners.

Hulu has released an extremely interesting and great new trailer for Stephen King and J.J. Abrams’ supernatural thriller Castle Rock.
The second season of the series will introduce Annie Wilkes in the series from King’s classic horrifying story, Misery. The synopsis explains that “a feud between warring clans comes to a boil when budding psychopath Annie Wilkes (Lizzy Caplan), Stephen King's nurse from hell, gets waylaid in Castle Rock."
Wilkes is one of my favorite characters that King has created and I love that this second season is going to focus on her. The new trailer is filled with new footage and intriguing story details as the story will dive into the history of Castle Rock!
Misery arrives in Castle Gate on October 23rd on Hulu. Now, watch the new trailer!

I loved the first season of Hulu’s Castle Rock, which is a series that dives into the deep dark world of the Stephen King universe. The full trailer has been released for Season 2, and it’s got me super excited for the madness that is coming!
In Season 2, “a feud between warring clans comes to a boil when budding psychopath Annie Wilkes (Lizzy Caplan), Stephen King's nurse from hell, gets waylaid in Castle Rock." The fact that her character is involved in this next season is awesome and it looks like Caplan is going to be great in the role. She’s got the crazy and insane look in her eyes that the character needs.
Misery arrives October 23rd on Hulu. Check out the trailer and let us know what you think! Are you looking forward to the second season of Castle Rock?

Hulu has released a little teaser for the second season of Stephen King’s Castle Rock. There’s no footage featured in the teaser, it just announces that “Misery Arrives on October 23rd.”
I loved the first season of this show and I can’t wait for Season 2, especially with the addition of the classic Stephen King character Annie Wilkes from Misery.

Hulu is setting up the second season of “Castle Rock” to be a prequel to Stephen King’s “Misery” and has cast Lizzy Caplan as a younger version of Annie Wilks.
“Castle Rock” is the re-imagining of the entire King canon into one universe and touches on some of his most iconic stories and characters. The fictional Maine town sits at the center of the King universe, appearing in numerous books including “Cujo,” “The Dead Zone,” and “The Body” (the novella that “Stand By Me” was based on).
In Season 2, a feud between warring clans comes to a boil when Annie Wilkes, King’s nurse from hell, gets waylaid in Castle Rock. Wilks was played by Kathy Bates in the 1990 film “Misery” which featured Bates as a former nurse and crazed fan of James Caan’s novelist, Paul Sheldon.

Everything we know about Castle Rock Season 2, including latest news, release date, trailers, cast, and more!
Castle Rock Season 2 is coming soon to Hulu! The streamer's renewal arrived even before the aggregate numbers of Season 1, which premiered on July 25, 2018. Indeed, the weekly series procured a second season renewal only six episodes into that first frame.
