Muschietti Interview & Pennywise Photo
Posted: August 6, 2017, 03:46
_
If the Muschiettis get their way, It will just be the first of several Stephen King-related projects to make it to the screen. The siblings own the rights to King’s sci-fi horror short The Jaunt, which was first published in 1981.
But they really want to tackle a big-screen redo of 1983’s Pet Sematary.
“We’re huge fans of Pet Sematary,” Muschietti says. “If we can get our hands on that and do the Pet Sematary we want to do, that will be something. One day, maybe.”

Here are my recap/thoughts on episode7 of The Mist. Please let me know what you think.The Mist is in trouble.
A New King Book Ready For Next Year
Posted: August 4, 2017, 00:53
_
Can you talk about what you’re working on now?
No.
[Laughs] Worth a shot.
There’s a book done for next year and there’s a book I wrote with my son called Sleeping Beauties that’s out next month, and he and I are going to go on tour. It’s nice to be able to write a book with your son. He told me what to do and I did it. It’s a preview of the old folks home.
So, there you have it. King didn't give us any info about what the book was about. If it's the book about Holly from Mr Mercedes or something totally different but...We will have a new King book next year!

Orange dresses up as ‘Castle Rock’ for Stephen King Hulu series
ORANGE — Town Hall will not be closed on Aug. 8, but you can expect delays when production crews film scenes in downtown Orange and at the First Universalist Church for “Castle Rock,” an upcoming series inspired by the works of horror writer Stephen King.
Joseph Stargensky, a freelance location manager for Hulu, the subscription video-on-demand service producing “Castle Rock,” said traffic will be detoured around the center of town for the early part of the day, but he did not see a reason to close Town Hall. He said the main intersection will close from 5:30 a.m. to noon so filming can last from 7 a.m. until noon. Filming, he said, will move to the church on North Main Street in the afternoon.
Downtown businesses will remain open to pedestrian traffic during filming.

…the younger cast IS returning in some form for the second movie. There'll be flashbacks to stuff we don't see in this movie that informs the story of the adults returning to Derry.
…during casting they considered casting a woman as Pennywise.
…Barbara Muschietti said ”That sequence with the Black Spot, we think it's gonna be a great opening for the next film”.
Quint also has interviews with The Losers Club, Barbara and Andy Muschietti and one of the first interviews with Bill Skarsgard. He also takes us on a set visit.
Here are the links:

Mr Mercedes Panel At TCA 2017

~ ~ SPOILER ~ ~
The ending of King’s book is very similar to the Manchester, UK, terror attack earlier this year. Producers confirmed that they changed the series ending. Director Jack Bender said that the show’s choice to change that framework was decided early on and was a “better way to make it a potentially more catastrophic event.”
Bender also said the series will not shy away from showing the dark or disturbing aspects of such events because it had a responsibility to show how such monsters affect people and “how lives are destroyed by one heinous act”. “Mr. Mercedes will just put the audience in that horror and not try to walk the tightrope.”
Other tidbits included…
…King had said he wishes he’d written some of the changes they made.
…Holland Taylor’s Character Ida wasn’t in the book but is there to humanize Bill.
…Audience Network guy said that the last six episodes of Mr Mercedes will be the best thing we have seen on TV all year.”
