After The Running Man, What Stephen King Reboot Should Be Next?

Edgar Wright's movie isn't really a remake, but a new adaptation of King's book. We're getting the same thing soon with Dark Tower and Carrie, but it seems to me there are other missed opportunities for this, my pick would be The Dark Half.

I might be alone in wanting a properly unhinged Misery remake, amputation scene and all. I love Kathy Bates, but give me Mia Goth as Annie Wilkes and I can die happy.

First thing that comes to mind is either a direct adaptation of Holly or some kind of series following Holly Gibney. Too big of a King character at this point to only appear as a supporting character in a couple short-run shows.

That said, I also think there's probably an interesting angle to try something like Cujo or Christine again.

Jesus. Mia Goth would be great in that role.

I do want to see a modern Cujo. That movie scared the crap out of me as a kid.

This wouldn't be a proper adaptation, but my dream production would be a riff on Misery about a Star Wars "fan" demanding Rian Johnson rewrite The Last Jedi.

I am very pro-Last Jedi. My favorite of the Disney Star Wars. I think this would just be a fun idea

Mia Goth would be a killer Annie Wilkes! I could definitely get behind this.
