Ever since I heard about Hulu’s upcoming series, Castle Rock, I’ve wanted to see it. A world that connects a plethora of Stephen King characters/stories? Count me in.
Hulu recently dropped a brand new trailer and it’s packed full of King references. Check it out!
Castle Rock is produced by J.J. Abrams with a cast starring Bill Skarsgård, Sissy Spacek, Allison Tolman, Scott Glenn, André Holland, Terry O’Quinn and Jane Levy. The series is set to dive into the Stephen King multiverse and bring together several stories.
According to Bloody Disgusting:
“Castle Rock first appeared in King’s 1979 novel “The Dead Zone” and has reappeared as late as his 2013 novel “Doctor Sleep” and 2014’s“Revival”. The name is taken from the fictional mountain fort of the same name in William Golding’s 1954 novel “Lord of the Flies”. “Cujo”, “The Dark Half” and “Needful Things” were set in Castle Rock, while “Creepshow”, “The Stand”, “Sleepwalkers”, “Gerald’s Game” and “IT” reference the town.”
Castle Rock will finally be premiering on Wednesday, July 25 with the first three episodes of the series. Are you ready to submerge yourself in world of Stephen King? I can’t wait! Stay tuned more news and updates as they come!
