Wayward Pines, a new 10-episode event thriller, will be coming to FOX next year. The series is based on the bestselling novel Pines by Blake Crouch and brought to life by suspenseful storyteller M. Night Shyamalan. At this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, we got to speak with cast members Matt Dillon, Melissa Leo, Toby Jones, Carla Gugino, Shannyn Sossamon, Tim Griffin and Charlie Tahan, as well as executive producer Chad Hodge. There was a bit of chaos in the press room as Jaden Smith was hanging out (dressed in a white Batman costume) at the table next to ours, and lots of celebs were stopping by to say hi.
