Horror Mike Flanagan’s CARRIE???

[Sithborg]

Flanigan does know how to make her outright hated, so yeah, probably should have expected that casting.

And there goes my interest. Milly Shapiro as Carrie would have made this stand out from the other versions.

Meh. I do think Shapiro would’ve been a little bit more interesting, but I’m here for Flanagan regardless.

Yeah, even though I’m a little bummed, Flanagan has yet to make a bad show or film and he always has good instincts. Judging from that interview he did some time ago, he has a lot of interesting ideas for his adaptation, and he wouldn’t have done it if he thought it wasn’t something special or thought he really didn’t have something new to say or bring to the table.

I trust him on this.

I have yet to be disappointed from anything Flanagan's done that I've seen but that being said, this is the fourth adaptation and none of them have had a book accurate Carrie.

On paper, another Carrie adaptation isn't the sort of thing that grabs me at the moment. But Flanagan hits it out of the park for me more often than he doesn't, so you know, whatever. Look forward to it based purely on the strength of his work.

with relative newcomer Summer H. Howell (Hunter Hunter) in negotiations for the title character, Carrie White, and Siena Agudong (Resident Evil) set as her nemesis, Sue Snell.

Deadline, read the damn book.

Not a huge selection of adult males in Carrie, so I have to imagine Flanagan will be embellishing a bit.

I still think the best approach might be something like what he did with The Haunting of Hill House. We’ve already had three fairly straightforward adaptations, might as well take some swings.
