According to Screenrant.com: A new Stephen King adaptation has added three major cast members to its lineup. The movie will adapt King's short story The Life of Chuck, from his anthology book If It Bleeds. Mike Flanagan, who already has a history of bringing King's work from the page to the screen, will direct.

Until recently, the only news in terms of casting was that Mark Hamill and Tom Hiddleston will star.
