Overview
- Producer Jay Van Hoy is leading the feature adaptation alongside Fernando Ferro and Paul Perez.
- The film draws from King’s 2020 If It Bleeds collection, focusing on a writer retreating to a remote cabin as his ambition turns perilous.
- Isaac Ezban, an emerging Mexican genre filmmaker, will direct, with Jeff Howard attached to adapt the screenplay.
- Ezban described the adaptation as a survival story about writer’s block that explores the tension between creative work and personal relationships.
- The announcement continues a busy cycle of King screen projects following recent titles like The Long Walk, while a previous attempt by Ben Stiller to adapt Rat did not move into production.
