Hulu shares more scenes from the adaptation of Stephen King's book "11.22.63" by debuting a new teaser. It highlights the repercussion of Jake Epping's (James Franco) attempts to prevent the assassination of John F. Kennedy.
"The past hates trespassers," so the video warns. Some scenes show Franco's character almost getting struck by a car which eventually crashes into a telephone booth and he being trapped in a room full of cockroaches.
The sneak peek also offers a glimpse of other characters, including Frank Dunning (Josh Duhamel), Lee Harvey Oswald (Daniel Webber) and Sadie (Sarah Gadon).
The limited series follows Epping, a seemingly mild-mannered high school English teacher who travels back in time to early September 1958 and tries to prevent President John F. Kennedy from being shot. But his mission is threatened by Lee Harvey Oswald, his falling in love and the past itself, which doesn't want to be changed.
The thriller is executive produced by King, J. J. Abrams, Bridget Carpenter and Bryan Burk. This eight-part miniseries will premiere on President's Day, February 15, 2016.
