If you’re Stephen King, it’s almost guaranteed that whatever you write will get optioned for a film treatment at some stage. Next up is his 2002 novel “From A Buick 8”, which Deadline reports has been optioned by Hyde Park Entertainment.
William Brent Bell has been assigned to direct the film and write the script.
King’s novel centres around the rural town of Statler, Pennsylvania where the state police have kept a mysterious 1954 Buick Roadmaster in the shed behind the barracks for over twenty years. But when the town is plagued by strange and supernatural events, it turns out the Buick isn’t exactly a car- it’s a door to another dimension.
