YAGA (2026)

Created by playwright Kat Sandler and adapted from her own stage play, Yaga reimagines the Slavic folklore figure of Baba Yaga as a contemporary mystery thriller set in a small coastal town. Noah Reid plays Rapp, a private investigator called in when Henry Park (Hudson Williams), heir to the town's powerful fishery, vanishes without explanation, pulling Rapp into conflict with a wary local detective, Carson (Clark Backo), and a magnetic university professor Katherine (Carrie-Anne Moss), all while the case delves further into folklore and long-buried town secrets.

The eight-episode series will premiere all at once, and each episode has a runtime of about half an hour, similar to some recent genre-bending hits like Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed. Yaga debuted its first teaser at San Diego Comic-Con in July 2026, and with Williams on board, it's set to be a hit, considering his skyrocketed fame after Heated Rivalry (reportedly, the tickets for the play sold out after Williams was announced as a cast member). Yaga is set to stream on AMC+ in the U.S., but an exact October date is still to be confirmed as of now; from what can be seen in the trailer, it leans just as much on atmosphere as it does on its central mystery. Furthermore, it looks like some of the shows we enjoyed watching in the 2010s, and a nostalgic moment is always welcome.
