Luca Padovan joins the cast as protagonist Mahito Maki, alongside Christian Bale (Shoichi Maki), Dave Bautista (the Parakeet King), Gemma Chan (Natsuko), Willem Dafoe (Noble Pelican), Karen Fukuhara (Lady Himi), Mark Hamill (Grand Uncle), Robert Pattinson (The Grey Heron) and Florence Pugh (Kiriko). Mamoudou Athie, Tony Revolori and Dan Stevens will also star as the Parakeets.

The Boy and the Heron centers on a young boy named Mahito Maki, who moves to a new town to live with his aunt following his mother’s death. There, he discovers an abandoned tower, and a talking grey heron convinces him to enter it, promising he’ll discover a fantastical world shared by the living and dead, where he can be reunited with his mother.

The Boy and the Heron already became a huge hit in Japan following its surprise release this summer. It had its international premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival back in September, where it served as the opening film, and it will have its theatrical release in the United States on December 8.

The Life of Chuck was published as one of the short stories in King’s anthology If It Bleeds, and it consists of three separate stories. They’re told in reverse chronological order, capturing the life of Charles Krantz from his brain tumor at 39 to the childhood he spent in what seems to be a haunted house.

The Life of Chuck isn’t the first story from If It Bleeds to receive Hollywood treatment. Mr. Harrigan’s Phone was adapted into a Netflix movie starring Donald Sutherland and Jaeden Martell, while Rat was optioned by Ben Stiller, who’s planning to produce, star, and direct a film based on this short story.

Tom Hiddleston most recently starred in The Essex Serpent alongside Claire Danes, and he’ll soon return for the second season of the Disney+ series Loki. Mark Hamill recently reprise the role of Luke Skywalker in several Star Wars projects, and he’ll next star in Netflix’s adaptation of The Fall of the House of Usher.

Mark Hamill is voicing the character of Chucky in a reboot of the 80s horror series, Child’s Play, which still gives us nightmares to this day.

In the reboot, the Star Wars actor provides his voice to the creepy doll who is given to Andy, played by Gabriel Bateman, by his mother who is portrayed by Aubrey Plaza.

In the modern-day retelling, the murderous toy is linked to an app that pitches the doll as “your new best friend”, but things begin to go awry…

“Mom, I need to tell you something, and I need you to believe me,” the teen says. “I think Chucky did something…”

Murders begin occurring in the town, with Andy determined to stop Chucky — despite all technology turning against its owners.

Child’s Play opens on 21 June, but it’s definitely not for kids.

Best known for his role as Luke Skywalker in the Star Wars franchise, Hamill has been set to voice star as the demonic doll in the “contemporary re-imagining” of the horror feature.

The news was announced Saturday at Orion’s pane presentation at WonderCon in Anaheim. 

“If you’re wondering who’s going to play Chucky in the new Child’s Play,” Hamill said, “you’re looking at him.”

“We feel incredibly lucky to have an icon creating a new take on an iconic character,” said executive producer David Katzenberg. “Mark is a gifted actor and celebrated vocal performer, and he’s approached this challenge with incredible energy and commitment.”

Hamill will star alongside Aubrey Plaza, Gabriel Bateman and Brian Tyree Henry. The remake of the 1988 horror classic follows a mother (Plaza) who gives her son (Bateman) a doll for his birthday, unaware of its more sinister nature.

Hamill takes over from Brad Dourif who voiced Chucky in the original 1988 film and its six sequels. 

Lars Klevberg will direct from a script by Tyler Burton Smith.
