One doesn’t have to look far back into history to discover evidence of a Stephen King novel being uncomfortably squeezed into a standard-length feature film. As I noted in my CinemaBlend review, Gary Dauberman’s Salem’s Lot does an effective job with King’s story and characters,

A24 has taken on the Stephen King bestseller Fairy Tale, with the dark fantasy to be mounted as a 10-episode series by Paul Greengrass and Peter Rice.

Stephen King’s Fairy Tale novel is being turned into a television series. Fairy Tale was published in September 2022. Written by King, the novel follows a 17-year-old boy named Charlie Reade who finds himself in the middle of a war between good and evil after he is transported to a hidden realm.
