It seems like we’ve been talking about Hulu’s “11/22/63,” an adaptation of Stephen King’s book of the same name, for quite some time without knowing when we’d be able to see it. But today the premiere date has been revealed along with a new still…
According to EW, we’ll be able to watch “11/22/63” beginning 2/15/16.
The “11/22/63″ mini-series follows James Franco’s Jake Epping, a high school English teacher who travels back in time to try to prevent the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. He finds his mission threatened by love, the infamous Lee Harvey Oswald (Daniel Webber), and the past itself, which does not want to be changed.
Other cast members include Josh Duhamel, Chris Cooper, Cherry Jones, T.R. Knight, Sarah Gadon, Nick Searcy, George MacKay, Lucy Fry, and Brooklyn Sudano.
The nine-hour miniseries is a collaboration among J.J. Abrams’ Bad Robot Productions, author Stephen King, executive producer/writer Bridget Carpenter, and Warner Bros. Television. Carpenter (“Friday Night Lights,” “Parenthood”) penned the script and will exec produce the drama alongside King and Bad Robot’s Bryan Burk. Bad Robot’s Kathy Lingg will co-exec produce, and Athena Wickham will produce. Kevin Macdonald (The Last King of Scotland) is directing the first two hours. The drama hails from Warner Bros. Television, and Warner Bros. Worldwide Television Distribution will distribute the series globally.
Carpenter says of the show, “The question is: Can the past really be changed? The past pushes back when you try.” We’ll all find out come February!
