A TV series named Ash vs Evil Dead premiered on cable network Starz in 2015 starring Bruce Campbell as Ash and executive produced by Campbell, Sam Raimi, and Rob Tapert, which lasted for three seasons and ended in 2018. The franchise was resurrected in 2013 with Evil Dead, both a reboot and a loose continuation of the series directed by Fede Álvarez, who co-wrote the screenplay with Rodo Sayagues, and produced by Raimi, Campbell, and Tapert. The franchise has since expanded into other formats, including video games, comic books, a musical, and a television series. The original trilogy includes The Evil Dead (1981), Evil Dead II (1987), and Army of Darkness (1992), all written and directed by Raimi, produced by Robert G. The protagonist, Ashley Joanna 'Ash' Williams ( Bruce Campbell) is the only character to appear in every installment of the original trilogy, with the notable exception of his main love interest Linda, who appears in Evil Dead II and Army of Darkness during only the prologues.
The series revolves around the Necronomicon Ex-Mortis, an ancient Sumerian text which wreaks havoc upon a group of cabin inhabitants in a wooded area in Tennessee. Evil Dead is an American supernatural horror film franchise created by Sam Raimi consisting of four feature films and a television series.
