MTV Pet Sematary Review

I like the reviews and interviews that are close to  when a project was made and there's still a lot of energy.

KING: The Stand Might Be More Than One Movie

 In a recent MTV interview, Stephen King expressed excitement at Josh Boone's work on The Stand adaptation.  Of course, many of us have been less than excited about this feature ever since Boone announced it would be a single three hour movie.  Good grief.  But King isn't ready to give up on Boone, or the idea of multiple movies.

"I think that his take is terrific. And don't count on it being one film. Because there's talk about doing it in an entirely different and innovative way. And I don't want to go into it because it's Josh's baby."

Check out Kelly West's article at cinemablend.com titled, "The Stand Movie Could Be Planning Something Really Different."  There's some pretty good commentary worth checking out.  West writes:

Now let's get to speculating and theorizing. On the surface, saying "don't count on it being one film" could mean simply that more than one film is planned. But that's neither "entirely different" nor particularly "innovative." What would be different is a TV series, miniseries or movie that sets up the story and/or some of the characters without interrupting the flow of the film. Meaning -- and this is pure speculation here -- maybe they're planning to do some kind of lead-in project which would help capture more of the story than what would be able to fit into a three-hour movie. If they divided the story the right way, the movie would ideally hold up on its own, without people needing to have seen the TV movie/miniseries. But those fans who want to see this book properly fleshed out on screen would get to enjoy both. That'd be my idea of "entirely different" and "innovative." 

MTV Confirms Boone is Directing The Stand

Wickman reports that Boone mentioned the film while disussing his upcoming film, "Fault."

“The emotional connection that they have to that book ["Fault"] is so deep I think a lot about,” Boone said. “The reason I can understand that sort of fandom is when I was their age, I loved Stephen King with all of my heart. I wrote him letters when i was a kid, he wrote me back, and sent me some signed books. I put him in my first movie and now I’m adapting and directing ‘The Stand’ for Warner Bros. 

“When I was a kid, his books meant that much to me, so I totally understand the obsession. you have things that root themselves in you. The things that you love as a kid are the hardest to shake. You will always love them.”

Later in the discussion Boone revealed that he has a "gentleman's agreement" with Nat Wolff to give him a role in The Stand.
