He previously directed the pilot for Unforgettable and 2 further episodes. The series is due to air next summer.http://www.deadline....plev-to-direct/An interesting note is that Under the Dome features a couple of references to Jack Reacher.

Under the Dome is a 13 episode summer series based on the stellar (IMO) thriller/horror novel by Stephen King.  I am reading it right now for the 2nd time and I very much want this to turn out good.  I know the script deviates a bit from the novel so I'm a little nervous that the powers that be will screw this up somehow.  ha ha

I really enjoyed this book. However, I'll be more forgiving on deviations from the novel on this project than I would be whenever they get around to the miniseries for 11/22/63.  Regardless, I don't think King's work translates all that well unless Darabont has a finger in it.

It was okay. The story threads it starts are somwhat intriguing but it definitely could have been better. Lefevre now kind of looks like crap and she isn't even that old. Robertson is a miscast. She may be 23 but looks about 15.

 

Isn't she supposed to be playing a teenager?  You'll have to excuse me, since I didn't watch last night, but it is ON DEMAND, so I'll get to it eventually.  I just read something about King thinking about writing an episode if it gets picked up for another season.  Was Dean Norris his awesome, totally badass self? :wub:
