King has blessed the Dimension Television project, which hails from “Rita” creator Christian Torpe
Stephen King‘s “The Mist” is being developed as a TV series by “Scream” producer Dimension Television and writer Christia Torpe, who created the hit Danish series “Rita,” it was announced Wednesday.
King has blessed this adaptation of “The Mist,” which was previously adapted for the big screen by “The Walking Dead” creator Frank Darabont.
Using the book and movie as influences, the series will tell an original story about a seemingly innocuous mist that seeps into a small town but contains limitless havoc. From psychological terrors to otherworldly creatures, the mist causes the town residents’ darkest demons to appear forcing them to battle the supernatural event and, more importantly, each other.
“The terror and drama in Stephen King‘s novella are so vast that we felt serialized television is the best place to explore them in greater depth,” said Bob Weinstein, co-chairman of The Weinstein Company and Dimension Films. “With this show, Christian has created a fascinating band of characters and a story with infinite scares.”
Megan Spanjian, VP of scripted TV, Matthew Signer, EVP of production and creative affairs, and Keith Levine, SVP of production and development, will oversee the project for Dimension TV.
Torpe’s “Rita” is now finishing its fourth season, and he has developed programming for both Showtime and AMC. He’s represented by ICM Partners.

The movie version. Is that the one whereThe dad had his family in the truck at the very end of the movie and the fog gets closer and closer to them and eventually engulfs them so he kills his family with the last of his bullets and waits for the monsters to come and ? him but the noises he hears is actually the military coming to save the day? but he already killed his fam.

I clapped when she got popped ? was annoying and made the situation worse -
I thought this was the movie with the giant insects and dinosaurs and ? from another dimension in the mist?

The movie was super creative and delved into what would happen when fear causes neighbors to be enemies. That idyllic white community broke down after a weekend. Gave u a glimpse of how fear and religious ideology can ? people up in the wrong situation. GOAT movie

You're prolly thinking of Dreamcatcher with Morgan Freeman, but yeah it was also based on a book by Stephen King. -

Frank Darabont had everything to do with how dope the movie adaptation was and that trill ass ending.
Tough act to follow.
Kinda like the Kubrick version of "The Shining" vs the made for TV version.
I'ma still give it a shot though. -

Yo, this ? is awful, and I wanted it to be good.
It has some of the worst character interactions I've ever seen, are these people even human?
