Stephen King: ‘I’m Not Sure’ Why Warner Bros. Is ‘Holding Back’ the ‘Salem’s Lot’ Remake as ‘It’s Quite Good’ and ‘Not Embarrassing or Anything’


Stephen King is "not sure" why Warner Bros. is holding back the release of the new "Salem's Lot" remake, which he thinks is "quite good."

King wrote on X/Twitter last year that Warner Bros.’ “Salem’s Lot” remake was “currently shelved,” and he called the movie “muscular and involving.” Starring “Top Gun: Maverick’s” Lewis Pullman, the remake’s cast also includes Makenzie Leigh, Bill Camp, Pilou Asbaek, Alfre Woodard and William Sadler. Previous adaptations of “Salem’s Lot” include a two-part CBS miniseries in 1979 and a TNT limited series in 2004 starring Rob Lowe.
