Stephen King's 'The Mist' Headed to TV at Spike
Spike TV has greenlit The Mist, with an order of 10 hour-long episodes based on Stephen King's classic horror novella.
The series heads into production this summer with a 2017 premiere. A pilot was ordered in February, bu the cabler heard the pitch for a full series and upped the order accordingly.
The Mist is the tale of the seemingly innocuous mist that seeps its way into a small town and creates chaos. Christian Torpe will executive produce.
The story was initially adapted for a feature film in 2007, and now follows on the heels of 11.22.63 as the latest TV adaptation to be picked up.
