Another film adaptation of Stephen King’s novella The Mist is in development, with writer-director Mike Flanagan attached to the project, which hails from Warner Bros, reports Deadline. Besides directing it from his own screenplay, based on King’s 1980 novella, Flanagan is set to produce the film under his Red Room Pictures banner. Also producing the film are Tyler Thompson, Chris Stone, and Spyglass Media Group’s Gary Barber. Meanwhile, Alexandra Magistro of Red Room will serve as an executive producer. The makers are yet to announce cast details.
In King’s novella, a mysterious fog takes over a Maine-based small town, and creatures come out of it and attack the people who exist there. A survivor group makes their way into a grocery store, but with no escape in sight, some of them consider the idea of getting out of the shop, potentially putting the rest of the lives at stake. As a result, the problems in the store become just as terrifying as the creatures outside.
