Stephen King is returning to the small screen, and this time he's bringing James Bond with him. Pierce Brosnan stars in Bag of Bones, the author's latest novel-turned-TV movie. The first promo for the film has debuted, and it's filled with terrifying goodies—just in time for Halloween!
Bag of Bones centers on a widower named Mike Noonan who's overcome by grief following the death of his wife. After having a strange dream, he's inspired to visit their lakeside retreat in western Maine. Little does he know that the pain and sorrow he's trying to escape are about to get much worse.
Mike realizes that the small town isn't as innocent or peaceful as it seems. He's pulled into a custody case and murder mystery, which Brosnan describes as a "beast of a piece." A&E has released a behind-the-scenes look at Bag of Bones that reveals plenty of horrifying moments, including walking corpses.
Today we have a look at the first footage from the upcoming adaptation of Stephen King's "Bag of Bones," starring Pierce Brosnan, Melissa George, Jason Priestley, Annabeth Gish, Anika Noni Rose and Matt Frewe. Check it out below.Plot: Bestselling novelist Mike Noonan (Brosnan) is unable to stop grieving after the sudden death of his wife Jo. A dream inspires him to return to the couple's lakeside retreat in western Maine where he becomes involved in a custody battle between the daughter of an attractive young widow and the child's enormously wealthy grandfather, the mysterious ghostly visitations, the ever-escalating nightmares and the realization that his late wife still has something to tell him.
Directed by Mick Garris, "Bag of Bones" is a two-part mini-series that will air on Sunday, December 11th and Monday, December 12th.Stephen King's "Bag of Bones" is coming to the screen -- the television screen, that is. The adaptation of King's novel will air on A&E for two nights in December.
Pierce Brosnan stars as Mike Noonan, a novelist suffering writer's block after the death of his wife. He retreats to a lake house, where things get creepy. In the video above, Annabeth Gish, getting made up as a rotting corpse, explains she's spent two hours in the chair."Bag of Bones" was published in 1998; 13 years seems like an awfully long time to wait for a screen adaptation. But at least it's happening -- earlier this year, the much-anticipated adaptation of King's "The Dark Tower" series was killed by a new studio administration. The A-list project, adapted by screenwriter Akiva Goldsman, would have starred Javier Bardem and been directed by Ron Howard.
