We’ve already gotten so much horror in theaters this year and it’s crazy to think that we’ve only just begun. Mike Flanagan‘s Doctor Sleep, an adaptation of Stephen King’s novel and a sequel to Stanley Kubrick’s film, is one of several hotly-anticipated films still headed our way here in 2019, and today we’ve learned that it has received an “R” rating from the MPAA.

Doctor Sleep has been Rated R for:

“Disturbing and violent content, some bloody images, language, nudity, and drug use.”

“Sounds about right,” Flanagan tweeted in response to the rating last night.

Ewan McGregor and Rebecca Ferguson lead the cast. McGregor stars as the adult version of Danny Torrance, while Ferguson plays Rose the Hat.

Carl Lumbly is playing Dick Hallorann with Alex Essoe as Wendy Torrance in the continuation of the storyline from The Shining. Kyliegh Curran has been cast in the role of Abra Stone, a girl who has the gift of ‘The Shining’. Bruce Greenwood plays the role of Dr. John. Alyn Lind is Snakebite Andi, with Jocelin Donahue and Jacob Tremblay also starring.

In Doctor Sleep, still irrevocably scarred by the trauma he endured as a child at the Overlook, Dan Torrance has fought to find some semblance of peace.  But that peace is shattered when he encounters Abra, a courageous teenager with her own powerful extrasensory gift, known as the “shine.” Instinctively recognizing that Dan shares her power, Abra has sought him out, desperate for his help against the merciless Rose the Hat and her followers, The True Knot, who feed off the shine of innocents in their quest for immortality.

Forming an unlikely alliance, Dan and Abra engage in a brutal life-or-death battle with Rose. Abra’s innocence and fearless embrace of her shine compel Dan to call upon his own powers as never before—at once facing his fears and reawakening the ghosts of the past.

Doctor Sleep hits theaters on November 8, 2019.
