8 Upcoming Stephen King Adaptations to Get Excited About
Stephen King is no stranger to having his work adapted. Here are 8 upcoming adaptations based on various novels and short stories by the King of Horror.
Get ready,
Stephen King fans. Over the past few years, the influx in content being produced solely for streaming services has made it easier for authors and creators alike to see their work come to life - and no author has ever been as prolific in seeing their work adapted for the screen as the King of Horror himself.
One of the early images in The Dark Half is as terrifying as anything Stephen King has ever conceived. Thad Beaumont, the film s hero, is a gifted boy who wants to be a writer. He suffers headaches and seizures. Some sort of brain tumor is feared. Doctors find something on the X-rays, and open his skull, and while they are probing the surface of the delicate tissue, a large eye opens and stares at them.
The eye, as King s readers will know, belongs to the unformed embryo of Thad s twin. Such cases are not unknown, the surgeons assure each other (surgeons are unflappable in these cases).
