Mike Flanagan is bringing a new adaptation of Stephen King‘s The Mist for Warner Bros. Pictures.

Flanagan will write, direct and produce through Red Room alongside Tyler Thompson and Spyglass’ Gary Barber and Chris Stone. Alexandra Magistro will also executive produce for Red Room.

The story is set in a small Maine town that is consumed by a thick, mysterious fog from which creatures emerge to attack the townsfolk. A group of survivors hole up in a local grocery store, sparking mob mentality and empowering unhinged extremists who become as dangerous as the horrors outside.

The Mist was first published as part of the 1980 anthology Dark Forces before being included in King’s 1985 collection Skeleton Crew. The novella spawned a 2007 film directed by Frank Darabont and a 2017 TV series on Spike.

Deadline first reported on the new adaptation.
