In a little unexpected news, Darren Aronofsky headed for Steven King's world. Yes, the man behind everything from "Requiem for Dream" to "Mother!" has been tapped to direct the upcoming film version of Netflix at Kujo, King's 1981 novel, which previously inspired an adaptation of a large screen in 1983. Now, Aronoski will be given a chance to put his own stamp on the material.

According to Hollywood reporterAronofsky applied to direct the adaptation, produced by Roy Lee ("Barbarian", "That"). There is still no word on who is imposing the script, but the director is expected to meet with candidates soon. All this is pretty surprising, like Netflix's "Kujo" was discovered only recently in development. It seems that this will not last in the development of hell.

Aronophic exits from his hit "Whale", which was eventually used by Brendan Fraser Oscar. He is one of the more distant executives working today in Hollywood, making his employment for something so commercial - and made a streaming service specifically - so surprisingly, but not unwanted. For those who may need a refresher, King's original synopsis is as follows:

A former Cumberers friend, St. Bernard, turns into a killer after being bitten by a furious bat. Donna Trenton's husband is in New York trying to contain a catastrophic advertising campaign. Feeling abandoned by her husband Rabaholic, who is often out of town, Donna Trenton goes into affair with local handicrafts. She stayed to care for herself, she takes her painful Pinto into the OEO Cumberers garage for repairs just to be trapped in her son Tad in the car she suffocates by the monstrous dog.

Hiring a guy like Aronofsky to direct "Kujo" suggests that Netflix will really allow this to be a movie driven by the film. Strimmer has in the past adapted several King stories, including "in the tall grass" and "1922", among others. The best of the group to this day is Mike Flanagan's "Eralairald Game". The common thread is that it is similar to a vision director.

Aronofsky also put his stamp on the horror genre by familiar with the hit "Black Swan" on his name. He was largely avoiding franchises throughout his career, Although he tried very hard to make a movie "Batman: One Year" at one point. While this is not a technical franchise, playing in Steven King's sand is not far from it. Putting a guy like Aronofsky, who is really skilled in making attractive characters above all, feels like an inspired choice for something that can be easily conveyed to a "monster movie of the week" if not properly acted.

There is still no word for casting, nor is it clear how fast production can start. But with a director now on the ship, things need to be established sooner than later. Since Aaronofsky is at the forefront, which opens the door for A-list actors to join the project.

"Kujo" currently has no release date, but stay up to date.
