The show, based on his 2006 novel, stars Julianne Moore as the widow of a world-famous author (Clive Owen), who over the course of his turbulent life discovered a passageway into a parallel dimension that helped him tap uncanny creative energies. His secret was only shared with her, although she struggled to understand it when he was alive. Now that Scott has passed away, there are outsiders willing to do anything to gain access to the unpublished materials he left behind, even if it means destroying the woman who meant everything to him.
King usually takes a hands-off approach to adaptations of his work, but he wanted to keep this one close. The author wrote the script for each of the show’s eight episodes himself, then went in search of a home for them. J.J. Abrams agreed to produce through Bad Robot Productions, assembling an A-list cast led by Children of Men costars Owen and Moore, with Moore also signing on as an executive producer. Abrams recruited filmmaker Pablo Larraín, best known for 2016’s Jackie, to bring a story set largely within the title character’s head onto the screen.
