The story of The Life of Chuck is split into three acts presented in reverse chronological order. It tells the story of Charles Krantz, beginning with him witnessing his own death and moving back throughout his life.
According to Deadline, the script for the series has been in the works for several months. Hiddleston will play the lead role of Charles Krantz with Hamill playing Albie. Deadline’s sources note that the film will “draw tonally” from classics like Stand By Me, The Shawshank Redemption, and The Green Mile.
Hiddleston is best known for his portrayal of Loki in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a role he is set to reprise sometime in the future in the second season of the hit Disney Plus series Loki. Mark Hamill, of course, is best known for his role of Luke Skywalker in Star Wars. Most recently, he appeared in Netflix’s live-action adaptation of Sandman and will also star in The Machine and Netflix’s House of Usher.
For King, this will be yet another adaptation of his work, to which the legendary author is no stranger. Tons of his stories have already been adapted into either films or television projects, including Carrie, The Shining, Pet Sematary, It, Stand By Me, The Shawshank Redemption, Cujo, and more.
