VIDEO: Kevin Bacon Chats New FOX Drama THE FOLLOWING

Actor Kevin Bacon spoke to EW about his upcoming series THE FOLLOWING, premiering January 21, 9/8c on Fox. "When I first read the script, I thought to myself, 'If we do it right, it's going to be kind of like a water-cooler sort of show where people will be saying, 'I can't believe what happened last night on 'The Following,''" he shares. "So far--we're into Episode 7--I feel like we've been pretty successful with that." Check out the interview below!

Created by Kevin Williamson (“Dawson’s Creek,” “Scream” franchise) and starring Golden Globe Award-winning Kevin Bacon (“X-Men,” “Frost/Nixon”) and James Purefoy (“Rome”), THE FOLLOWING is the spellbinding and intense drama which follows an ex-FBI agent (Bacon) called out of retirement to track down a devious and diabolical serial killer (Purefoy), the mastermind behind a nationwide string of murders.
