このコンテンツについて
Stephen King remains an unstoppable force in both pop culture and literature, as this week has been nothing short of headline-grabbing for the legendary author. King’s latest anthology, The End of the World As We Know It: New Tales of Stephen King’s The Stand, launched with a truly unique eleven-city simultaneous book signing event across the U.S., Canada, and the UK—a first in publishing, according to Cemetery Dance. King attended the Bangor event, engaging fans with stories behind the book’s creation. That effort paid off handsomely, with the anthology debuting at number three on the New York Times hardcover bestseller list—no small feat for a collection, and one that underscores King’s enduring draw.
The author has also been active on the publicity circuit, appearing in interviews with outlets like The Guardian and Sunday Times, where he confirmed he “has at least one more book” he wants to write before even considering slowing down. He’s opened up about his fears—specifically, the specter of dementia—as reported by The Times and covered widely, admitting every forgotten word gives him pause but affirming that he still writes 1200 words a day and isn’t hanging up his pen just yet.
On the screen, King’s influence is pervasive. The MGM+ miniseries adaptation of The Institute completed its first season and has already been renewed, with King himself posting enthusiastic support on social media. Hollywood is buzzing about two upcoming feature films—The Long Walk, set for theatrical release September 12, and The Running Man starring Glen Powell. Notably, King insisted on raising the brutality in The Long Walk’s adaptation, a demand director Francis Lawrence honored, resulting in a film that reportedly does not hold back, as covered by The Independent and reinforced at a recent Comic-Con panel.
King’s recent works extend beyond violence—just this week, he gave new insight into his adaptation of Hansel and Gretel, co-created with late illustrator Maurice Sendak. King highlighted the dark fairy tale’s importance for children facing adversity, connecting its themes to his latest novel, Never Flinch, which follows the neurodiverse detective Holly Gibney. As he told WBUR, King sees these stories as a chance to celebrate resilience and “think outside the box.”
King remains outspoken on social media, with his Threads and Twitter feeds featuring his unfiltered takes on current events, particularly U.S. politics, which reliably spark debate, as noted by both CNN and AOL.
For those wanting to hear directly from the man himself, a virtual book club discussing The Stand is happening September 9th through the Doylestown Bookshop—another indicator of King’s dedicated following and community engagement.
