A&E has launched a lengthy four-minute clip for the forthcoming Bates Motel.

The TV series will offer a contemporary take on the story of Psycho’s Norman Bates and his mother, and stars

Freddie Highmore and Vera Farmiga.

Bates Motel concerns the early days of Norman’s life. Following the tragic death of her husband, Norma Bates buys a motel on the outskirts of the idyllic coastal town of White Pine Bay, seeking a fresh start.

As Norma and Norman get ensconced in their new home, they discover this town isn’t quite what it seems, and the locals arent so quick to let them in on their secrets. But the Bates are done being pushed around and will do whatever it takes to survive and will do whatever it takes to protect their own secrets.

The series will premiere on March 18.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
