[News] KING ON SCREEN Trailer Presents a Deep Dive into the Legendary Author

Dark Star Pictures presents the official trailer for the upcoming documentary, KING ON SCREEN. Check out the trailer below and let us know what you think.

1976, Brian de Palma directs Carrie, the first novel by Stephen King. Since then, more than 50 directors have adapted the master of horror’s books, in more than 80 films and series, making him the most adapted author alive in the world. What’s so fascinating about him that filmmakers cannot stop adapting his works?

KING ON SCREEN reunites the filmmakers that have adapted Stephen King’s books for cinema and TV, including Frank Darabont (Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile, “The Walking Dead”), Tom Holland (The Langoliers, “Chucky”), Mick Garris (“The Stand,” Sleepwalkers) and Taylor Hackford (Dolores Claiborne, Ray). It is a movie made for the fans and with the fans, led by an international ambition.

Directed by Daphné Baiwir, the documentary stars Frank Darabont, Mick Garris, Mike Flanagan (“Midnight Mass,” Doctor Sleep), Tom Holland, Vincenzo Natali (Cube, Splice), Greg Nicotero (“Creepshow,” Day of the Dead), Mark L. Lester (Firestarter, Class of 1984), Dee Wallace (Cujo, Critters), Tim Curry (“IT,” The Rocky Horror Picture Show) and the late James Caan (The Godfather, Misery).

KING ON SCREEN will be released in select theaters on August 11, 2023. It will be available on Demand and Blu-ray on September 8, 2023. To learn more, check out our review here.
