I heard this last Wednesday in an interview that it was going to be made for TV. I also finished reading the novel earlier this week and would LOVE to see this made. I wonder how they will deal with such a huge cast of characters though, because even if each episode is an hour long, it'll be difficult to work with all 40+ main characters and 70+ secondary characters.

this sounds good

40 MAIN characters? Wow. Hopefully they do it justice then. Most of King's adaptations/movies are always good. Can we get any news on the IT remake? Is it still in the writing stages?

What great combination for a potential collaboration!

So it's the Mist, just bigger and with no monsters?

Wow. Two different groups of people going after each other? I've never read that, before. That's a true "return to form". I thought this bastard retired. WTF?

Sounds just like STINGER by Robert McCammon. A good alien desends upon a town chased by another bad motherfukin alien. Bad alien puts big forcefield around town...two gangs inside fight while this abad alien is turning the townspeople into insecticles. Bad Alien wants good alien. Townfolk like good alien and want to persevere. Great book. King and Koontz can both suck.

Just read the Bachman Books story, " The Long Walk." And that's the next, King movie I want to see produced. Most of his movies are too main streamed in my opinion.

This looks interesting. I'm not finished the book yet but the scope is pretty huge. I hear that King's short story "Home Delivery" (from Nightmares and Dreamscapes) is being made into a film as well.

that's good as can't wait

Fucking yawn. Unfortunately, both of these geniuses are well past their prime.

This... should be awesome!!

Looking to buy the book very soon and find it interesting that King came up with the idea in the late 70s and it's now only just being released so there has to be some good stuff in there so also looking forward to an adaptation if that is the case.

This reminds me of The Simpsons Movie...
