‘Spin the Bottle’ – Justin Long and More Join Supernatural Horror Movie – Bloody Disgusting

Stephen Kings new novel Fairy Tale was only just released on September 6, and Deadline reports today that a movie adaptation is already on the way from Paul Greengrass.

Greengrass (Captain Phillips, Jason Bourne) will adapt, direct, and produce the movie.

Kings latest novel is an epic tale that follows a 17-year old boy who inherits the keys to a terrifying world where good and evil are at war. The stakes could not be higher, for that world and ours, as he journeys into the mythic roots of human storytelling.

Deadline reports, From what Ive heard, the property will be shopped imminently, and I expect there to be no shortage of bidders as studios and streamers look for branded titles with global theatrical tent pole potential, especially in the skilled hands of a filmmaker like Greengrass.

Needless to say, Im a Paul Greengrass fan and think hes a wonderful choice for this film, Stephen King said in a statement shared by Deadline.

Greengrass told the site, Fairy Tale is a work of genius. A classic adventure story and also a disturbing contemporary allegory.

King recently said of the inspiration behind the novel, I saw a vast deserted citydeserted but alive. I saw the empty streets, the haunted buildings, a gargoyle head lying overturned in the street. I saw smashed statues (of what I didnt know, but I eventually found out). I saw a huge, sprawling palace with glass towers so high their tips pierced the clouds. I saw a magic sundial that could turn back time. Those images released the story I wanted to tell.
