New Ash vs Evil Dead pics feature Bruce Campbell and a bit of the red stuff

Now that the first image of Bruce Campbell as Ash has dropped, more exciting tidbits from the upcoming Evil Dead series are headed our way! First up are a few words from Mr. Campbell regarding the return of a classic vehicle (as if there was any doubt) as well as some of the dialogue he'll be spitting out in the upcoming series. If that wasn't exciting enough, we also have a few more pictures of Ash springing into action, as well as the aftermath of such action. Campbell looks good in the red stuff!


Bruce Campbell on the return of the classic ‘73 Delta 88:

Sam’s original Delta is back. I’m talking the ‘73 Delta 88. The Classic is back! I’ve driven it. I did a William Shatner power-slide in that car. That’s the only spoiler I’m gonna give you: that Ash and that car — we can power-slide. I met William Shatner on the convention circuit, and I talked about T.J. Hooker. He talked to me about how he power-slides those cars in T.J. Hooker. So I took Shatner’s advice, and I used that advice to do a T.J. Hooker combo-platter — with the Classic — power-slide.

Regarding the return of Ash:

There’s going to be a lot of the classic, over-the-top, in-your-face fullness, with a pretty trash-talking Ash. In a TV series, people gotta talk, so Ash will have more dialogue than he’s pretty much ever had. There’s a pretty high count of Ash’s classic one-liners. They’re back, and they’re strong, and they’re flourishing!

Given that the official trailer for Ash vs Evil Dead is set to drop this Friday, I'm willing to be we'll see a release date for the pilot episode as well. Sounds good to me! While I'm staying cautiously optimistic about this series, I can't deny that seeing Bruce Campbell sporting the outfit and the chainsaw gets me all hot and bothered. Couple that with what Campbell's had to say about the series, and we may just have something that lives up to the name.

Ash vs Evil Dead will will air on Starz sometime this year.
