Most of you remember the 2007 film ‘The Mist’ directed by Frank Darabont and starring Thomas Jane, which was based on Stephen King’s novella about a mysterious mist that crept across a small town and the strange beasts in the mist that made meals out of the unfortunate residents that ventured outside.

Bob Weinstein,co-chairman of The Weinstein Company and Dimension Films was quoted as saying “The terror and drama in Stephen King’s novella are so vast that we felt serialized television is the best place to explore them in greater depth. With this show, Christian has created a fascinating band of characters and a story with infinite scares.”
