I’ve said it quite a few times but 2017 will go down as the “Year of Stephen King.”
With successful adaptations of his novels IT, Gerald’s Game, and 1922, and TV series based on “The Mist” and “Mr. Mercedes”, King was everywhere in 2017.
And it looks like the trend is going to continue as today we have news that Suicide Squad and Bright director David Ayer will develop King’s “The Bone Church“ into a TV series.
Deadline reports that Ayer will exec-produce the series along with Chris Long and their Cedar Park Entertainment banner, which will also be the studio for the series as well.
I haven’t yet read Stephen King’s poem “The Bone Chruch” (which was revised and featured in King’s recent anthology “The Bazaar of Bad Dreams“) so I can’t comment on whether or not the poem will make for a solid series. But if it’s King, I’m there.
What do you think of “The Bone Church” becoming a TV series? Let us know below!
Synopsis:
An adventurer organizes an expedition deep into a vast jungle land to locate the mythic Bone Church. They discover a secret not meant for the eyes of strangers. Only three of the 32 travelers escaped with their lives in a tale narrated by one of the survivors, who tells stories from a bar stool to patrons who’ll buy him drinks.
