The next Stephen King adaptation to arrive in theaters will be Dennis Widmyer and Kevin Kolsch‘s Pet Sematary, of course technically a re-adaptation of King’s novel. Jason Clarke plays Louis Creed this time around, and Games Radar (via Total Film) shares two new shots of Clarke’s Creed tonight.
“I read [the novel] in my early twenties,” Clarke told Total Film. “Nobody does it better than King. The descriptions of what’s going on are just too much at times – you have to put the book down. I was really fucking disturbed.”
Twins Hugo Lavoie and Lucas Lavoie play Gage Creed, with Jeté Laurence as Ellie Creed. Jason Clarke and Amy Seimetz are our new Louis and Rachel Creed, with John Lithgow as Jud Crandall. Obssa Ahmed is playing Victor Pascow, with Alyssa Brooke Levine as Zelda.
“Based on the novel by Stephen King, Pet Sematary follows Dr. Louis Creed, who, after relocating with his wife Rachel and their two young children from Boston to rural Maine, discovers a mysterious burial ground hidden deep in the woods near the family’s new home. When tragedy strikes, Louis turns to his unusual neighbor, Jud Crandall, setting off a perilous chain reaction that unleashes an unfathomable evil with horrific consequences.”
Return to the Pet Sematary on April 5, 2019.
