It isn’t merely the rumors which this sound book would indicate King’s retirement. The New York Film Critics Circle, a longtime institution in the world of film criticism, announced its awards today, with Nyong’o honored with Best Actress for her spooky dual performance in the horror film.Mainly because I forgot, but because I am doing so reread in 10-audio book balls and it made sense to finish with Buick since rarely has King composed a sound book that feels so much like that he needs to package it up and limp away to the nightand never to be heard from again. Now Oscar-winning actress Lupita Nyong'o has nabbed an early win for Peele’s second feature, Us. But recent history has been elevating the status of horror, fantasy, and sci-fi in the eyes of these awards bodies, with no greater champion heralding genre forward than Jordan Peele. Next, awards season’s early days are upon the film world and historically, that meant that genre films were to be quietly confined to categories highlighting technical achievement: special effects, score, production design. No production timeline has been given for the film, though King is already on board with the project. We are honored that Stephen is supporting our vision of his brilliant, provocative novel.”

Along with first love and grief, terrifying and philosophic mysteries are spawned by inexplicable events connected to the titular car. “ From a Buick 8 is a thrilling and deeply personal project for us,” said the Renegade pair, “as we explore a uniquely structured mystery spanning the 70s, 80s, 90s and post-9/11 era, centered around a son’s search for the truth behind his father’s sudden death. The faux vehicle’s real purpose and abilities, like perhaps acting as a portal between worlds, cause the town of Statler, Pennsylvania and its residents all sorts of grief. From a Buick 8 - not to be confused with Joe Hill’s car-based horror story NOS4A2 which got its own AMC adaptation this year - is about a spooky 1953 Buick Roadmaster. From a Buick 8 is getting its own film from the new company Renegade Entertainment, formed by frequent genre and King star Thomas Jane and producer Courtney Lauren Penn.Īccording to Deadline, the company’s first film will be based on the King novel, the rights to which have now switched over from the company that had them in 2018.

The Stephen King adaptation train keeps on rolling, though a different vehicle will be at the heart of the latest film based on the horror titan’s work.
