CBS All Access‘ new series adaptation is headed your way this winter from director Josh Boone (The New Mutants). Today, we’ve got a new trailer that reveals a world divided between good and evil.
The 9-episode series adaptation of Stephen King‘s classic tale will air weekly and will feature a new ending written by the master of horror himself specifically for the series.
The tale finds people in a world decimated by a plague where they stuck in the middle of a battle between good and evil. The fate of mankind hangs in the balance and rests on the shoulders of Mother Abigail, who is 108 years old, along with a handful of survivors who must face off against Randall Flagg, humanity’s worst nightmare.
