The Institute is the latest Stephen King novel to get a live-action adaptation, this time as a series set up at MGM+. Jack Bender, no stranger to adapting King as he was involved with Mr.
Mercedes, and teams with Benjamin Cavell, who also has worked on King material, having been involved with The Stand, will bring the series to life. It will star Ben Barnes as Tim Jamieson and Mary-Louise Parker as Ms. Sigsby. Production is set to begin in Nova Scotia this fall.
Tim Jamieson, played by Barnes, is a disillusioned ex-cop who takes a job as the night knocker in a small town, withdrawing from the world until Luke's plight reignites him and gives him something to believe in. Ms. Sigsby, played by Parker, is the charming but iron-willed director of the Institute and a true believer in its awful mission. She's certain history will come to see her as a hero.
