This new poster for the show is simple, but effective in evoking the world of Damien, which will soon be inverted as everything you once believed comes crashing down. Check it out below!

Damien follows the adult life of Damien Thorn, the mysterious child from the 1976 motion picture who has grown up seemingly unaware of the satanic forces around him. Haunted by his past, Damien must now come to terms with his true destiny — that he is the Antichrist.
