Ben Barnes as General Kirrigan in Shadow and Bone

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The highly anticipated TV show adaptation of Stephen King's 2019 novel The Institute will break a streak for star Ben Barnes. Adaptations of King's stories are still a hot commodity for the TV and movie industries. As recently as last year, King was the mind behind one of the most well-received horror films of 2023 with The Boogeyman.

Related New Stephen King Show Is The Perfect Replacement For Stranger Things An adaption series of one of Stephen King's books is in the works, and it may be the best replacement for Stranger Things once the Netflix show ends. In Netflix's The Punisher, Barnes plays the good-looking Billy Russo, a friend and Marine who served with Frank Castle in Afghanistan. He then betrays Frank and, after a brutal showdown, becomes the villain known in the Marvel Universe as Jigsaw. In Netflix's Shadow & Bone, Barnes plays General Kirigan a manipulative general who believes he's a savior instead of the morally corrupt military man he is.

The Institute has no in-text connections to other Stephen King books, even though its story has eerily similar themes to Doctor Sleep and Firestarter .
