EXCLUSIVE: Netflix has made a deal to turn the Stephen King bestselling novel Cujo into a new feature film. Roy Lee is producing, and they will go out to writers immediately.

Roy Lee will produce the reboot of the 1981 Stephen King novel first adapted for a 1983 feature film that starred Dee Wallace and Danny Pintauro.

Director Lewis Teague's Cujo is a great movie. It develops as a slow burn, giving the audience time to get to understand the relationships and conflicts in the Trenton family, and then it unleashes extreme terror as a mother and her child find themselves trapped in a broken down car during a heat wave and under siege by a rabid St.

Netflix is making a new adaptation of Stephen King's Cujo - and honestly, I'm surprised it took this long.

The Monkey is the first Stephen King movie of the year, but the next one, to be released in November, is very different but equally exciting.
