Mike Flanagan is headed back into the world of Stephen King with a brand new small screen adaptation of King’s classic novel Carrie for Amazon, Deadline reports this morning.
The plan? An eight-episode television series adaptation of the iconic horror tale.
Deadline recaps, “The 1974 novel put the young author King on the map, and also bolstered his worth as an author whose genre storytelling was most translatable to the big screen in 1976. Brian De Palma was the first director to adapt King’s coming of age story of a young sheltered girl (Sissy Spacek) with a domineering mother whose bullying caused unimaginable consequences due to her hyperkinetic powers. Several follow-ups came later, including The Rage: Carrie 2, a 2002 telepic, and a 2013 remake that starred Chloe Grace Moretz and Julianne Moore.”
Flanagan will executive produce the series along with Trevor Macy.
