Hey everyone, Ryan here…
Add another movie to the continuously-growing list of Stephen King book-to-movie adaptations. It turns out as though Rob Schmidt, director of WRONG TURN, has landed the spot of directing an adaptation of King’s INSOMNIA.
INSOMNIA is a 700+ page book, which will make for a very hard adaptation Hopefully Schmidt will be able to do the book justice, and not screw it up. Schmidt did have something to say regarding him directing:
“I’m doing the film mainly because King was such a big fan of Wrong Turn!” says Schmidt.”
Hopefully he’s directing the film for more of a reason than King liking his first film…but I guess when you have King’s support, there’s not much more to ask for.
