Mike Flanagan is set to leave Netflix and join Amazon Studios, where he's currently slated to helm three upcoming projects that should excite fans.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Mike Flanagan's deal with Netflix ended with the miniseries The Fall of the House of Usher, based on Edgar Allan Poe's gothic short story of the same name. Deadline reported that Flanagan was poached by Amazon Studios at the end of 2022, meaning he'll be working on producing projects for Prime Video for the foreseeable future.
3 The Life Of Chuck - TBD While none of Flanagan's Amazon projects have official release dates, a movie based on Stephen King's short story "The Life of Chuck" is definitely happening. From King's 2020 If It Bleeds collection, it tells the story, in reverse chronological order, of a man who grew up orphaned in a haunted house and died from a brain tumor at 39. King almost denied Flanagan the rights to "The Life of Chuck" due to his work on The Dark Tower series.
In 2017, a movie adaptation of The Dark Tower hit theaters. It wasdirected by Nikolaj Arcel and starred Idris Elba. However, it was a huge disappointment, mainly because it was barely recognizable from the source material. That's part of why a Flanagan-helmed version of the story is so exciting. He's likely to be more faithful to King's books.
