Not to get all Hollywood hipster on you, but back before Taika Waititi was palling around with the superheroes of the MCU, he was hanging out with the creatures of the night in the horror-comedy What We Do in the Shadows. Alongside fellow funnymen/New Zealanders Jemaine Clement, Jonny Brugh and Rhys Darby, in a fantastic supporting role, Waititi played one of three classy vampires attempting to survive and thrive in the modern era. Waititi, Clement, and Brugh played Viago, Vladislav, and Deacon in the 2014 film, but the new FX TV series spin-off will center on a wholly (and unholy) separate trio of denizens of the dark.

FX released two teasers today for the debut season of What We Do in the Shadows, and they strongly suggest that the dark humor of the film is still on brand here. In the small-screen version of the story, Matt Berry, Kayvan Novak, Natasia Demetriou, Harvey Guillen and Mark Proksch star as New York City's vampire roommates and the mortals and immortals who occupy their inner circle. Look for it soon!
