‘The Stand’: Heather Graham Joins CBS All Access’ Stephen King Adaptation

Graham will play Rita Blakemoor, a wealthy woman who is ill prepared for the end of the world and attempts to escape superflu-infested New York City.

 

[Doctor Jones]

I could have sworn Rita was elderly.

 

[DarthMuppet]

Not elderly, just middle aged. Heather is 49, so she’s pretty much the same age as the character.

LOL, well that guarantees that this will be terrible. It’s not necessarily her fault but I don’t think Natalie Martinez has ever been in anything good.

First Look: Stephen King’s The Stand Comes To Life Again

 

[Fincher]

Not a lot to say here, since it's not changing my expectations much either way. It looks better than a CBS network show but not as good as Netflix, unsurprisingly. I still like who they got for Frannie. They doubled up on Frannie, Harold, and Flagg for some reason and didn't show some of the main characters, but okay.

 

[kvz5]

Yeah I was surprised we didn’t see Heard and especially Marsden.

 

[Brother Jack]

Interesting that this will have a non-linear structure with flashbacks. That's not how I would've guessed they would tell the story. For the most part, the book is completely sequential in its storytelling, and as a post-apocalyptic story is unique in that it shows the full downfall of the world from beginning to end and back. I hope this adaptation doesn't lose any of that.

 

[Sawyer]

*sees Skarsgard’s Flagg*

 

[Art Vandelay]

Yeah I was surprised we didn’t see Heard and especially Marsden.

Here she is

Also, that's Larry and Rita in James B's last photo.

The Stand, a limited-series adaptation of Stephen King’s classic novel, is slated for a late 2020 premiere. Written by Josh Boone and Ben Cavell and starring Alexander Skarsgard, The Stand is King’s apocalyptic vision of a world decimated by plague and embroiled in an elemental struggle between good and evil.

Super excited for this as the Stand has always been my favorite Stephen King novel and it's in serious need of an update even if I did love the miniseries as a kid. Still can't decide if releasing this miniseries this year is great timing or horrible timing on CBS' part.
