Why? Flanagan has proven to be, without a doubt, the best/most consistent adapter of King’s book and best voice in TV horror for almost a decade.

That's great. Why not go adapt one we haven't had yet? More Carrie just doesn't inspire.

Hey at least it's not an 8-episode series based on Christine.

I mean… the last good Carrie adaptation was 50 years ago. We live in completely different times and the story can and probably should be adapted in completely different ways because of that.
And more… what King HASNT been adapted at this point for him to go do?

As I said, I'm not about a Carrie remake. It's a remake, movie or TV show or whatever. Not interested.

Okay… I’ll ask again. What King adaptation would you rather see?

Same. Dude is the master of TV horror at this point and his movies are solid also. To this day,
I consider him a genius for figuring out how to adapt Gerald's Game into a movie. Life Of Chuck had transcendent moments, if the movie was a little uneven. And Dr. Sleep was 1000x better than it had any business being as a Shining sequel and he created an All-Time baddie in that movie with Rose The Hat.
