Strain

Mondo are well-known or producing highly sought after posters based on many popular movies, but they’ve now taken a stab at two of FX’s bloodiest TV shows, The Strain and Fargo.

The American network has partnered up with the ATX Television Festival in Austin, Texas, for a special closing-night programme which will feature the world premiere of the pilot for Guillermo del Toro’s upcoming drama The Strain and an unaired episode of Fargo. The posters below will be shown at the event.

Based on a trilogy of novels (which were later turned into a Dark Horse comic book series) from Pacific Rim director Guillermo del Toro and author Chuck Hogan, a small screen adaptation of The Strain is set to debut on FX this July. The first season will consist of 13 episodes, and Del toro will direct and co-write the pilot alongside Hogan. Former Lost co-showrunner Carlton Cuse is set to run the series and executive produce.

Fargo meanwhile is a 10 episode series (which airs on Channel 4 in the UK) based in part on the Coen brothers’ Oscar-winning film, and it stars Billy Bob Thornton, Martin Freeman, and Kate Walsh.
