NEWS - Clamorissimo al Cibalissimo! L'assassinio di Kennedy diventa un serial firmato da Stephen King (che adatta il suo best-seller) e J.J. Abrams (stica!). E così Hulu lancia la sfida a Netflix e Amazon...

One of Stephen King’s most acclaimed novels in recent years is coming to Hulu as a limited series thanks to super-producer J.J. Abrams.
Hulu has greenlit an adaptation of King’s bestseller 11/22/63 from Warner Bros. TV and Abrams’ Bad Robot productions. The 2011 novel follows a high school English teacher who travels back in time to prevent the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and discovers the past can become very tricky to change. Abrams, King, writer Bridget Carpenter (The Red Road, Friday Night Lights) and Bryan Burk are all executive producers.
“If I ever wrote a book that cries out for long-form, event TV programming, 11/22/63 is it,” King said in a statement.
The project will be designed as a stand-alone story based on King’s novel. But if the show is successful, we’re told the opportunity exists to do additional seasons based on the same format.

Abrams released this note: “I’ve been a fan of Stephen King since I was in junior high school. The chance to work with him at all, let alone on a story so compelling, emotional and imaginative, is a dream.”
From Carpenter: “Stephen King is one of my literary heroes. Creating this miniseries from his extraordinary book is a dream come true. My dad, a lifelong Stephen King fanatic, still cannot believe it.”
For Hulu, the order marks the streaming service’s most significant original series order yet as the company looks to compete with streaming kingpin Netflix along with Amazon. No release date has been determined.
