or dark romance as she calls it but also writes within the genres of paranormal. “We’re honoured to tell this sprawling, epic story, including a new coda that Stephen King has wanted to add for decades. Her passion in writing is not limited solely to horror twisted with romance.
He said: “During the two years we spent making The Stand, we all felt the responsibility of adapting what may be the most beloved work of one of the world’s most beloved storytellers, but none of us could have imagined that Stephen King’s 40-year-old masterpiece about a global pandemic would come to be so eerily relevant. Speaking to Collider earlier this year, The Stand showrunner and executive producer Benjamin Cavell shared some details about King’s new ending.
King wrote a new ending for the screen adaptation as the show is a limited series and will not end on a cliffhanger. "Their worst nightmares embodied in a man with a lethal smile and unspeakable powers: Randall Flagg (Alexander Skarsgard), the Dark Man.” The official synopsis for The Stand reads: “The fate of mankind rests on the frail shoulders of the 108-year-old Mother Abagail (played by Whoopi Goldberg) and a handful of survivors. Written in the classic style used by the master of horror Bram Stoker, Memoirs takes a fascinating look at the myth behind the man and forges it into the Dracula we came to love by giving his backstory, why he was filled with vengeance, and what the secret relationship was between Dracula and Abraham VanHelsing. The nine-part series is set in a post-apocalyptic world, following the struggle between the good and bad survivors of a plague. The Stand is an adaptation of the 1978 novel by acclaimed horror author, Stephen King.
