Revival centres around the relationship between a heroin-addicted musician and a dubious faith healer with a hidden agenda.

The minister is obsessed with trying to find a way to communicate with his departed wife and child but ends up connecting to a Lovecraftian horror.

Flanagan and Macy have earlier teamed for the 2017 adaptation of King’s novel Gerald’s Game, which was released on Netflix. They also collaborated on the 2018 Netflix series The Haunting of Hill House.
