The Monkey by Stephen King
Hollywood never grows tired of Stephen King adaptations. The source material here is a short story first published in 1980, then revised and released as part of 1985 collection Skeleton Crew (which also features the already twice-adapted “The Mist”). Hollywood also loves tales of haunted toys, and The Monkey movie sounds like it will be a major horror release; according to Deadline, the Osgood Perkins-directed, James Wan-produced movie’s cast includes Theo James (playing the twin main characters), Tatiana Maslany, and Elijah Wood. It wrapped shooting in March but does not yet have a release date.
