The Mist is the latest of dozens of TV series and mini-series adapted from Stephen King’s work.
Most recently, ABC adapted his Under the Dome into a three-season series, and J.J. Abrams took King’s 11.22.63 to the digital realm on Hulu.
It’s not for certain, but that description does sound like it could very well be a Mother Nature-worshipping version of Mrs. Carmody.
The series is expected to begin filming this month at an emptied Target location in Bedford, Nova Scotia, and will reportedly remain in production there for six months.
