Netflix's Next Stephen King Remake Just Got A Surprising Director

Warner Bros.

For Stephen King, one horror adaptation is rarely enough. It has been brought to the screen more than once, as has Firestarter, Pet Sematary, and Carrie. In fact, a third adaptation of Carrie is in the works, as is a second adaptation of The Running Man. The most recently announced King remake is an oldie, but a goodie: Cujo, the story of a family trying to defend itself from a rabid dog, was first adapted into a movie in 1983.

Now the story is being remade as a Netflix movie from Barbarian producer Roy Lee. When we first learned about it, there were no cast or crew attached, and the first big reveal is also a very surprising one.
