Since seven episodes of Outcast have already aired, the trailer Cinemax cut together for San Diego Comic-Con focuses purely on the remaining three episodes.
As you would expect from a show involving demonic possessions, the footage is straight-up bonkers. And, of course, it teases the eventual showdown between Kyle (Patrick Fugit) and Sidney (Brent Spiner), which is something the first season has been building up to.

Outcast, based on the Skybound/Image comic title by creator Robert Kirkman and artist Paul Azaceta, follows Kyle Barnes, a young man who has been plagued by demonic possession all his life. Now, with the help of the Reverend Anderson, a preacher with personal demons of his own, Kyle embarks on a journey to find answers and regain the normal life he lost. But what Kyle discovers could change his fate โ and the fate of the world โ forever.
Patrick Fugit (“Gone Girl”) stars as Barnes, a man searching for answers, and for redemption, who sequesters himself from those he loves for fear of causing greater hurt. Philip Glenister (“Life on Mars”) stars as Reverend Anderson, a West Virginia evangelist who believes he is a soldier in God’s holy war against the forces of evil on Earth. An inveterate drinker and gambler, he doesn’t believe God intends people to sweat the small stuff. Gabriel Bateman (“Stalker”) stars as Joshua Austin, an eight-year-old who lives across town from Kyle. To his family’s dismay, he appears to be in the clutches of demonic possession, but there’s something very different about this possession and its connection to Kyle Barnes.
Watch Outcast Fridays at 10PM/9C on Cinemax.
