A Prequel To The The Shining?

It seems that a prequel to author Stephen King's horror novel classic, The Shining is being discussed according to the LA Times.


The prequel would focus on what happened before Jack Torrance and his family arrived at the Overlook Hotel in the original film.

"Shutter Island" writer Laeta Kalogridis along with partners Bradley Fischer and James Vanderbilt would produce the feature, however a studio spokeswoman says it's "in a very early stage and not even formally in development."

The Times’ had no word on whether King would be involved.

The original book has been adapted twice for the screen--first by Stanley Kubrick and then as a TV Mini-Series in 1997
