‘Carrie’ Series in the Works at Amazon From Mike Flanagan

Stephen King‘s Carrie is getting another adaptation — this time in series form.

Amazon MGM Studios is developing a drama based on King’s 1974 novel, which has been the basis for four previous feature films. Mike Flanagan (Netflix’s The Haunting anthology, Doctor Sleep) is adapting the book and will executive produce with his Intrepid Pictures partner Trevor Macy. (Intrepid and Flanagan have an overall deal at Amazon MGM Studios.)

Should it go forward, Carrie would stream on Amazon’s Prime Video.

Flanagan has adapted several of King’s works in the past, most recently The Life of Chuck, which won the Audience Award at the Toronto International Film Festival. He also write the screenplays for The Shining sequel Doctor Sleep and Gerald’s Game (the latter with Jeff Howard).

More to come.
