David Schwimmer may be out of his mind as he begins acting incredibly erratic in the official trailer Goosebumps: The Vanishing.
“I want you to have a really fun and also safe summer out here,” Schwimmer’s Anthony tells his twins Cece (Jayden Bartels) and Devin (Sam McCarthy) at the beginning of the trailer when they arrive at his Brooklyn home for the summer in the Goosebumps anthology series‘ second season. “I only have one rule: Stay out of the basement.”
As things begin to go awry, Anthony may be behind it all as he investigates his brother’s death when they were kids and went missing.
According to the series logline, “A threat is stirring, and [the kids] quickly realize that dark secrets are among them, triggering a chain of events that unravel a profound mystery. As they delve into the unknown, Cece, Devin and their friends — Alex (Francesca Noel), CJ (Elijah M. Cooper) and Frankie (Galilea La Salvia) — find themselves entangled in the chilling tale of four teenagers who mysteriously vanished in 1994.”
Ana Ortiz rounds out the cast of the show. She portrays Jen, a police detective who remains rooted in her Brooklyn neighborhood after experiencing a tragic event that involved her friends in adolescence.
Goosebumps was originally a limited series but was upped to an anthology after the first season, starring Justin Long and Rachael Harris, did well on Disney+. According to Nielsen figures, it racked up 1.9 billion minutes of viewing time in the United States for the four weeks after its October 2023 premiere.
Nicholas Stoller and Rob Letterman developed the series, produced by Sony Pictures Television, for Disney Branded Television. Hilary Winston and Letterman serve as showrunners and executive producers, alongside Stoller, Neal H. Moritz, Iole Lucchese, Pavun Shetty, Conor Welch, Caitlin Friedman, Erin O’Malley, James Eagan and Karl Frankenfield.
All eight episodes of Goosebumps: The Vanishing hits Disney+ and Hulu on Jan. 10, 2025.
