Mike Flanagan's new Stephen King movie is already on its road to success as it's bringing back some veteran King and Flanagan actors.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Mike Flanagan’s next horror movie is taking him back to the universe of Stephen King, and it’s already repeating part of the formula that made his previous Stephen King movies so successful. Mike Flanagan has earned a spot among the masters of horror with movies like Oculus and Hush and TV series like The Haunting of Hill House and Midnight Mass.
Based on King’s short story of the same name from the If It Bleeds novella, The Life of Chuck is divided into three acts in reverse chronological order. These tell the story of Chuck Krantz , from his childhood as he was raised by his grandparents after becoming an orphan to his death of a brain tumor at the age of 39.
The Life of Chuck has cast veteran Stephen King actors who have previously worked with Flanagan as well, such as Carl Lumbly , Violet McGraw , Jacob Tremblay , and Kate Siegel . Another King actor returning to this universe in The Life of Chuck, but who didn’t work in Flanagan’s past King movies, is David Dastmalchian, who played Lester Billings in The Boogeyman.
The Life Of Chuck's Cast Is Still Missing Some Crucial Mike Flanagan/Stephen King Actors The cast of The Life of Chuck features various frequent collaborators of Mike Flanagan, which makes the excitement around it grow even more, but it’s still missing some key actors from Flanagan’s King movies. The most notable absentee is Henry Thomas, who appeared in both Gerald’s Game and Doctor Sleep, the prequel Pet Sematary: Bloodlines , and every TV series by Mike Flanagan.
