Stephen King’s ‘A Good Marriage’ Being Turned Into A Film, Who’s Read It?
If you read this site then there’s a good chance you like Stephen King and will be glad to know that A Good Marriage will be making its way to screens sometime next year. The original story comes from King’s “Full Dark, No Stars” compendium and Peter Askin (Trumbo) has been hired to direct.
Per Screen Daily, “Atlas International has added Stephen King adaptation ‘A Good Marriage’ to its Cannes slate.
Peter Askin will direct the psychological thriller based on a short story from King’s book Full Dark – No Stars, winner of the 2010 Bram Stoker Award for Best Collection. Will Battersby produces.”
In the book, “When her husband of more than twenty years is away on one of his business trips, Darcy Anderson looks for batteries in the garage. Her toe knocks up against a box under a worktable, and she discovers the stranger inside her husband. It’s a horrifying discovery, rendered with bristling intensity, and it definitively ends a good marriage.”
The project is casting. Have any of you guys read this story? How is it and who do you think should be in it?
Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
