Mike Flanagan says that Chuck’s life is the film he wants to be remembered for; There is also a new clip

Mike Flanagan has a strong talent to tell existential stories such asMidnight mass, The pursuit of Hill House, Sleep doctorAND Game’s game that everyone struggles with mortality in their own way. But with his next movie, Chuck’s lifeFlanagan believes that it may have created something even more lasting.

Flanagan shared in an essay published on social media:

“There are very few works that I imagine will survive me significantly. I always hope they do it; we hope that in telling the stories we tell, we are planting a seed that will grow a long time after we have vanished.

“I have no idea which of these seeds will take root with people and dwell on those questions is a path towards madness. I feel a quiet and humble trust that Chuck’s life A long time will survive us. “

This is a great statement from someone who is also attached to high -profile IP like The exorcist, Carrie, BatmanAND The dark tower. But it is clear Chuck’s life It affects a different nerve because it is so personal.

Based on the story of Stephen King, Chuck’s life He plays the life of a man, Chuck, on the contrary. It is a poetic, emotional and distraction and Tom Hiddleston leads an incredible ensemble that includes Chiwetel EjioFor, Karen Gillan, Jacob TremblayAND Mark Hamill. It is the type of film in which the performances count, but also the feeling it leaves behind.

Flanagan continues:

“Chuck’s life is, at this moment, my favorite film I have ever been part of. I told people who came into production that this was the film I wanted to leave in the world for my children.

“It is so rare to work on something so significant, so unique, so distinct and so serious. This is a story without a cynical bone in its body. What rare and beautiful moment of art.”

The story on which the film is based is caring, deeply human and surprisingly warm for Stephen King, and I can’t wait to look at this cinematographic adaptation. He received excellent reviews! I also included a clip of the film to watch below
