TELL ME A STORY takes the world’s most beloved fairy tales and reimagines them as a dark and twisted psychological thriller. Set in modern day New York City, the first season of this serialized drama interweaves “The Three Little Pigs,” “Little Red Riding Hood,” and “Hansel and Gretel” into an epic and subversive tale of love, loss, greed, revenge and murder.
JAMES WOLK, who starred in CBS's ZOO series, will play Jordan, a young, idealistic and successful New York City restaurateur. When the unimaginable happens,
Jordan’s life falls apart and he begins a decent into madness which could cost him everything, even himself.

PAUL WESLEY, whom you watched in The Vampire Diaries, will portray Eddie, a derelict and troubled individual whose petulance is fuelled even more by his problems with drugs and alcohol. Although he works as a bartender, he also splits his time as a low-level drug dealer and part-time thief with his older brother Mitch, who never fails to treat Eddie as the lowly delinquent that he is.
