The new documentary, King on Screen, dives into the film and TV adaptations of Stephen King’s iconic tales. Ahead of its release, I sat down with director Daphné Baiwir to discuss not only the documentary, which is fantastic, by the way, but also the legacy of King and the impressive list of filmmakers involved with the film.
King on Screen introduces the filmmakers that have adapted Stephen King’s books and stories for cinema and TV, including Frank Darabont (Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile, The Walking Dead), Tom Holland (The Langoliers, Chucky), Mick Garris (The Stand, Sleepwalkers) and Taylor Hackford (Dolores Claiborne, Ray). It also takes you behind the scenes and reveals the love they have for King’s work.
King On Screen is a must-see for both fans of Stephen King and Cinema in general. It opens in select theaters on August 11, 2023, followed by its arrival On Demand and Blu-ray on September 8, 2023, from Dark Star Pictures.
