Stephen King and J.J. Abrams are teaming up again for another Hulu series. Their first series 11.26.63 was a hit based off of King’s book. The two will now work together on another series based on another King’s writing. The series will focus on a fictional place King uses a lot in his work: Castle Rock.
Hulu has ordered a first season of 10 episodes, with production to begin this year. No premiere date has been announced as of yet.
According to the Hulu description, “Castle Rock combines the mythological scale and intimate character storytelling of King’s best-loved works, weaving an epic saga of darkness and light, played out on a few square miles of Maine woodland.” Hulu adds that the series is “a first-of-its-kind re-imagining that explores the themes and worlds uniting the entire King canon, while brushing up against some of his most iconic and beloved stories.”
The teaser shows famous locations in King’s novels like Shawshank State Prison and even hints at ‘It’ character Pennywise the clown. You can assume there will be many more references to King’s work throughout the series.
