Mike Flanagan Writing a Film Adaptation of Stephen King’s ‘Revival’

Horror

After directing Stephen King tales Gerald’s Game and Doctor Sleep, THR is reporting today that Mike Flanagan is now involved in a feature film adaptation of King’s Revival.

Flanagan will write and produce for Warner Bros., “with an option to direct.”

Trevor Macy (Doctor Sleep) will also produce.

“The novel focused on the relationship between a heroin-addicted musician and a dubious faith healer with a hidden agenda. The minister is obsessed with trying to find a way to communicate with his departed wife and child but ends up connecting to a Lovecraftian horror.”

The novel was published by Scribner in November 2014.

Josh Boone had previously been attached to adapt Revival.
