Overview
- Crave and AMC+ premiered the first teaser for Yaga at San Diego Comic-Con on Saturday, July 25, 2026, and the trailer was posted to social platforms after the panel.
- The series will bow in October 2026 on Crave with U.S. distribution on AMC+, as announced by the creative team at the SDCC panel.
- Yaga adapts Kat Sandler’s play into a half-hour mystery thriller about private investigator Rapp, played by Noah Reid, who probes the disappearance of heir Henry Park, played by Hudson Williams.
- The SDCC trailer uses explicit, sexually charged and violent imagery and a striking Baba Yaga voiceover line to set an adult, revenge‑tinged tone, and press attention has focused on Hudson Williams’ intense performance.
- The show is produced by Front Street Pictures and Blink49 Studios, directed by David Frazee and Rachel Talalay, and positions the Baba Yaga figure as a feminist antihero in contemporary folklore reimagining.
