The Life of Chuck filming in Alabama

According to Gulf Coast Media, Mike Flanagan will be filming an Stephen King adaptation starting in mid-October. Filming in various locations around Mobile and Baldwin Counties, The Life of Chuck is expected to take a month to film.

Stephen King’s 2020 release, The Life of Chuck, is a part of the If It Bleeds collection. Keeping in classic King style, this story is a spooky one:

“The Life of Chuck is three separate stories linked to tell the biography of Charles Krantz in reverse, beginning with his death from a brain tumour at 39 and ending with his childhood in a supposedly haunted house.”
