​​SAM RAIMIE ON THE FILMS BASED ON STEVEN KING

Director Sam Raimi says he wants to make a film based on Stephen King's work, talking about his admiration for one of the most popular and influential horror writers whose stories are regularly used by filmmakers.
During his conversation with CinemaBlend about the return to superheroism in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Sam Raimi spoke about his desire to direct a Stephen King movie. The director stated that he would like to adapt several of the writer's works for the big screen at once, including the cult "The Shining".
He already had plans for the last piece, but he didn't manage to do it, although he still remains open to the possibility of trying something else. Read Raimi's words below:

"Absolutely. I love The Shining, but the book has already been adapted. And I also love Carrie, but it's already been made. There is also his collection "Night Shift". He's great.
So many great stories. I would definitely make a great movie. Director Rob Reiner made a great film ahead of me. But there are many good stories from King. And I would like to take part in them. Maybe in the future we can still work together.”
