Mike Flanagan & Stephen King Back In Business With ‘The Mist’ Movie For Warner Bros

In The Mist, a small town in Maine is consumed by a thick mysterious fog from which creatures emerge to attack the townsfolk. A group of survivors hole up in a local grocery store. As often happens with King’s fiction, anarchy and societal reordering brings out the best in some, and the absolute worst in others, sparking mob mentality and empowering unhinged extremists who become as dangerous as the horrors outside

is anyone from Welcome to Derry associated with this? They could set off a whole Stephen King universe if planned right. Yeah they all kinda loosely do it in some kinda way. Would be good to see a coordinated effort tho

I like the mist, but I don't really see what they can add with a new movie that would make it better than the last one. If I'm not mistaken, King suggested it was better than the book because of its superior ending.

I might rewatch the mist this weekend

fucking love that movie

 

[Lou Cypher]

Damn this is gonna be tough to do better than the one that already exists.

One of the most toughest endings to a film ive ever seen

 

[Air Dog]

a sequel would make more sense than a redo

They are both made from Warner bros, so it is possible. Flanagan is also producing the dark tower. He could possibly link it to that as well. Elements of the mist kind of play more into the dark tower.

But, to be honest, this doesnt need to be redone. That reminds me i have to finish that book. Only read half of it.

Didn't Netflix have a Mist series a while back? It seemed interesting, but it never went anywhere. Something like that might be better than a movie. That's where Flanagan seems to have success.

It was on a tv channel but got canceled on the 1st season. They kind of went off the rails with the story. A complete departure from the movie

Unless this is being linked to Welcome to Derry and the new Dark Tower series this is unnecessary

The last one was off the chain. Its still fucc that bitch that caused all that chaos when everyone was locked down in that grocery store.
