MGM Studios is producing the Carrie series as “a bold and timely reimagining” of King’s story. In the book and the previous adaptations, Carrie is a teenage girl whose life has been dominated by her religiously fanatical mother. Carrie is also mercilessly teased by her fellow students in school before she discovers telekinetic powers that allow her to get vengeance on everyone who wronged her.

Flanagan has previously directed feature films based on King’s Doctor Sleep and Gerald’s Game, as well as the upcoming movie The Life of Chuck. Prior to joining the Carrie remake, Flanagan signed on to develop King’s The Dark Tower as a Prime Video series, but the status of that project isn’t clear. Flanagan also wrote and produced several horror shows for

including The Haunting and Midnight Mass. More recently, Flanagan signed on to direct the next Exorcist film.

The original Carrie movie was directed by Brian De Palma in 1976 with ****** Spacek as the lead character. That spawned a sequel, The Rage: Carrie 2, over two decades later. Carrie was subsequently remade as a TV movie in 2002, as well as a theatrical reboot in 2013 starring Chloë Grace Moretz as Carrie White.

If Prime Video’s Carrie adaptation goes to series, Falangan will serve as the showrunner.
