This is a pivotal moment for Mike Flanagan and Trevor Macy’s Intrepid Pictures, which the duo launched in 2004. After six years creating and producing for Netflix, including the last four under an overall deal, the duo behind The Haunting TV franchise and Midnight Mass are moving to Amazon Studios. Additionally, they are taking on their most ambitious project to date: a screen adaptation of Stephen King’s The Dark Tower, which creator Flanagan envisions as a TV series to run for five seasons, followed by two stand-alone features.

Mike Flanagan respects Stephen King's writings. He brings his books to life without messing with the material that is already written. But Mike Flanagan does have off moments with TV Series/Movies like the Midnight Club.

The way Mike handled Doctor Sleep using The Shining movie with The Shining book parts into the sequel was genius.

Phenomenal news. Flanagan is the perfect showrunner for this project in my mind. I imagine King himself would agree given how pleased he purportedly was with Mike's excellent Doctor Sleep film.

Didn't realise it was the director of the excellent Doctor Sleep. Hopeful for excellence now.
Will King star as himself when it gets a bit meta?

Loved Dr. Sleep but Midnight Mass was even better. Very excited for this.
