Ben Affleck approximately one of the best books of Stephen King

Ben Affleck’s profession participated primarily in working in the types of crime and excitement, but some of the previous projects that were not achieved in the end were expanding his ammunition. After being filmed as the dark leader in the extended universe, he was scheduled to direct the films of the movie “Batman”, but he bent from the situation of the superficial dust To focus only on playing Batman instead. However, his obligations to play the role of the Crusaders in Gotham also prevented Affleck from modifying the large screen of Stephen King’s “The Stand” by Warner Bros. And that would have allowed him to decline his toes in the world of imagination.

“The Stand” is a sprawling and ambitious post -terrible horror story in the United States after a fatal pandemic. The chaos begins after the patient escaped from a military facility carrying a virus, which eventually spreads and gives most of the population. With a society about to completely collapse, the mother Abeel-a 108-year-old woman-and her followers set out to restore peace, law and order. However, it faces competition from Randall Flagg, the demonic magician whose followers inspire to go to the dark side. Thus, the final battle begins between good and evil for the sake of humanity.

AFLECK once compared his “Stand” plan to “Lord of the Rings”, “ This indicates that his goal was to direct a good -intentioned epic equally with Peter Jackson’s cinematic treatment for the fantasy fantasy of JRR Tolkien. Unfortunately, getting the correct scenario in some headache behind the scenes, and “The Stand” has become completely something else after Affleck’s separation to the project.

Many are considered one of the best fictional novels in all ages, but its intensification of the screen has proven to be a difficult task for filmmakers. When Ben Affleck left the planned adaptation of the film, Scott Coper rose to replace him on his head, just for the part after Warner Bros. decided Adapting the novel as one feature. Like Affleck before him, Cooper felt that the terrifying fantasy epic is worth spreading through multiple films and giving them the same treatment “Lord of the Rings”, but the studio does not apparently agree with this idea.

After being subjected to hell for years, “The Stand” eventually turned into the 2020 series Stephen King allowed to correct the main regret of his book. Unfortunately, ADAPTATION PARAMOUNT+ Mixed reviews and can be said that it diminishes compared to the Mick Garris collection, which was better received for the year 1994 in the story. However, it might have turned differently if the project was contacted as a multi -movie ambitious cinematic privilege, unlike the series that failed to capture the range and quality of source materials.

The good news, however, is that Hollywood has not abandoned a modern adaptation to “The Stand”, which we hope is the story of King. Doug Lyman is currently linked to adapting a large screen with Paramount Pictures, where the project is seen as a priority for studio. Let us just hope that they will deal with it with the scale and the sofa that the story deserves, because “The Stand” has the ability to empty some of the films of “LOTR” events.
