Darren Aranofski in negotiations with “Direct Netflix” Stephen King

In a little unexpected news, Darren Aranofsky is heading to Stephen King. Yes, a person behind everything, from “Requiem for a dream” to “mother!” In the 1981 King’s novel, which was previously inflicted on the direct movie Netflix “Cujo” “Cujo”, which previously inspired adaptation to the big screen in 1983. Now the Aranosc will be given the opportunity to put its brands on the material.

According to Hollywood reporterAranofski signed up to direct the adaptation produced by Roy (“Barbarian”, “it”). There is still no word about who writes the script, but the director is expected to meet with the candidates soon. It’s all very strange as “Cujo” Netflix was only recently in development. It seems that this will not be secret in hell.

Aranophsky leaves his blow “Keith,” which ended up throwing Brandan Fraser Oscar. It is one of the most respected directors who work in Hollywood today, which makes it hiring for something so commercial – and made specifically for streaming – so strange but not unwanted. For those who may need an update, the King’s original book synopsis announces:

Someday is given to St. Bernard’s Cambers turns into a killer after a furious bat. Donna Trenton’s husband in New York is trying to restrain a catastrophic advertising campaign. Feeling that her husband’s abandoned husband, who is often outside the city, Donna Tentan tells about the case with a local master. It remains for herself to make her sick Pinto on his own to the garage Joe Camber for repair, to be trapped with her son Tadad in a brazen car with a terrible dog.

Holding a guy like Aranofic to direct “Cujo”, suggests that Netflix really will allow this movie that is directed. The family has adapted several King’s stories in the past, including “in high grass” and “1922” among others. The best pile to date is the “Gerald” game Mike Flanaan. The widespread thread is that it was very much conditioned by the director with the vision.

Aronofski also put his stamp on the horror genre, calling his name “Black Swan”. He greatly avoided franchise throughout his career, Although he really tried to make the movie “Batman: One Year” at one moment. Although it is not technically a franchise playing in the sandbox of Stephen King, not far from her. Putting a guy such as Aranophsky, who is really agile about the development of convincing characters, first of all, feels an inspired choice for what can easily go to the “Monster Film of the Week” if it is not correct.

There is no word at the casting yet, and it is not clear how the production can start quickly. But with the director now on board, everything should be placed in the place sooner than later. Given that Aranofski is at the steering wheel that opens the A-List actors to also join the project.

“Cujo” now has no release date, but keep track of the news.
