[color=rgb(20,20,20);background-color:rgb(250,250,250);]Director Josh Boone announces on Kevin Smith's Hollywood Babble On - The Stand now to be four movies.[/color]
Yes this can be considered primarily a fiscally driven decision but as a big Stephen King I'm all for it. There are a lot of characters here and they all need time to breathe.
[color=rgb(20,20,20);background-color:rgb(250,250,250);]Interview here - [/color]SModcast | Hollywood Babble-On Bonus: Babble on Hollywood: Josh Boone: The Fault In Our Stand [color=rgb(20,20,20);background-color:rgb(250,250,250);]- starts at the One hour and 20 minute mark specifically about The Stand. The whole interview is worth listening to.[/color]
Note - foul language abounds so definitely not work friendly or for those turned off by such language.
[color=rgb(20,20,20);background-color:rgb(250,250,250);]First reaction on hearing the news - Uh, wow![/color]
[color=rgb(20,20,20);background-color:rgb(250,250,250);]Second reaction - HELLS YEAH!!!!!!!!!![/color]
[color=rgb(20,20,20);background-color:rgb(250,250,250);]Third reaction - after listening to that Kevin Smith interview -[/color]
[color=rgb(20,20,20);background-color:rgb(250,250,250);]OMFG![/color]
[color=rgb(20,20,20);background-color:rgb(250,250,250);]Boone so gets not just The Stand but every Stephen King story!!![/color]
[color=rgb(20,20,20);background-color:rgb(250,250,250);]Boone also takes special care to note that The Stand is not a story that can be translated into a bunch of strung together set pieces. Love that he told Warners he refused to do an adaptation that WorldWarZ'ed the book. To him The Stand is a story about characters and the audience getting into the heads of those characters.[/color]
[color=rgb(20,20,20);background-color:rgb(250,250,250);]Can't wait![/color]
