The Weinstein Company’s Dimension Television is developing a TV series based on The Mist, first a Stephen King novella and then a 2007 MGM film directed by Frank Darabont. The project, which Dimension says is moving forward with King’s blessing, is from writer Christian Torpe, who created the Danish series Rita which is now finishing its fourth season. The series will tell an original story about a seemingly innocuous mist that seeps into a small town but contains limitless havoc. From psychological terrors to otherworldly creatures, the mist causes the town residents’ darkest demons to appear forcing them to battle the supernatural event and, more importantly, each other. “The terror and drama in Stephen King’s novella are so vast that we felt serialized television is the best place to explore them in greater depth,” said Bob Weinstein, co-chairman The Weinstein Company and Dimension Films. “With this show, Christian has created a fascinating band of characters and a story with infinite scares.” Last edited by Will.; 21-09-2015 at 12:36 PM. |

From what I remember of the film, it didn't seem to lend itself to a TV format. I'm already bored of the latest trend of film adaptation on TV.

They should do a Salem's Lot tv show, that would actually work as a 13 episode series.
Unless they change The Mist dramatically it'll just be about the characters hiding in a supermarket for a season. |
