Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Mike Flanagan’s upcoming Stephen King movie, The Life of Chuck, isn’t exactly what audiences might expect based on his past works, but it marks an exciting change for the celebrated filmmaker. While Mike Flanagan’s five Netflix TV shows have earned him widespread popularity and acclaim in the horror genre, the director has also long had success with original movies and book adaptations following his 2011 film debut, Absentia.
The Life of Chuck tells the story of the titular character, played in Flanagan’s upcoming movie by Tom Hiddleston, but is presented in reverse chronological order. In Stephen King’s novella, the story begins with Chuck’s death at age 39, then concludes with Chuck’s childhood in a house that is supposedly haunted.
The purportedly haunted house of The Life of Chuck ’s ending is a trademark of Mike Flanagan’s horror tales.

While The Life of Chuck movie may seem like a big change for Flanagan after his past movies and Netflix horror shows, the film will be a fitting step before his genre-bending Dark Tower adaptation.
