Stephen King adaptations are thriving, primarily driven by Mike Flanagan's recent efforts. Alongside his projects, new adaptations like Edgar Wright's Running Man and Long Walk are in the works. A fresh theatrical interpretation of The Stand will be directed by Doug Liman, following a recent version on Paramount+. This project marks the third attempt to bring King's vast post-apocalyptic narrative to life, highlighting the ongoing challenge of translating the expansive story into a feature film format.
The Stand is a massive story, and previous adaptations have struggled with condensing its myriad characters into a single feature film.
Doug Liman, known for Edge of Tomorrow and The Bourne Identity, will helm the new adaptation of The Stand, his first venture into King's work.
