Stephen King's "The Life of Chuck" Trailer Is Here
Yara Sameh Neon has finally released the official trailer for the highly-anticipated film adaptation of Stephen King's short story "The Life of Chuck". The movie is led by Marvel vet Tom Hiddleston, who is playing the titular role of Charles Krantz. 'The Life of Chuck' is told in reverse, following Hiddleston's Charles Krantz as his life story will be told into three separate parts, beginning from his death up to his childhood. Alongside Hiddleston, the ensemble cast also includes Annalise Basso, Carl Lumbly, Kate Siegel, Samantha Sloyan, Rahul Kohli, Violet McGraw, Heather Langenkamp, Matthew Lillard, David Dastmalchian, Harvey Guillén, Trinity Jo-Li Bliss, Q'orianka Kilcher, Michael Trucco, Molly C. Quinn, Lauren LaVera, Antonio Raul Corbo, Taylor Gordon, Hamish Linklater, Matt Biedel, Suriyan Sapkota, Saidah Arrika Ekulona, Scott Wampler, and more. Benjamin Pajak, Jacob Tremblay and Cody Flanagan will all play different versions of Chuck, while Chiwetel Ejiofor and Karen Gillan will play Marty and Felicia, a divorced couple whose world is unraveled by the mystery of Chuck Krantz. Mia Sara and Mark Hamill play Chuck's grandparents Sarah and Albie, with Nick Offerman serving as the film's narrator. The movie hails from writer-director Mike Flanagan, who had already previously adapted King's other novels into movies such as "Gerald's Game" and "Doctor Sleep". "The Life of Chuck" is produced by Flanagan and Trevor Macy for Intrepid Pictures. The film was acquired by Neon following a people's choice award win at the Toronto International Film Festival. 'The Life of Chuck' has been compared to King adaptations like 'Shawshank Redemption' and 'Stand By Me' rather than 'It' or 'Pet Sematary.' Filming began in October 2023 under a SAG-AFTRA interim agreement. In a previous interview, Flanagan confirmed that the movie will see some changes from the source material. 'One of the big changes we made to this story was that the people you meet at the beginning, you see them again as Chuck encounters them throughout his life, and you can see how and why he pulled them into his imagination, and how they continue to exist in his mind even after the real people have moved on, in one way or another,' he explained. 'And so that's one of the very few changes we made for the film. It seemed like a real cool opportunity to do something like that." "The Life of Chuck" is set to release in theaters from Neon on June 6. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Lifestyle Pistachio and Raspberry Cheesecake Domes Recipe News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Videos & Features Bouchra Dahlab Crowned Miss Arab World 2025 ..
