Stephen King’s chilling 1981 novel Cujo is set to receive a fresh adaptation on Netflix. The story centers on a once-friendly Saint Bernard who, after being bitten by a rabid bat, becomes a relentless killer. The situation escalates when Donna Trenton and her young son, Tad, find themselves trapped in their malfunctioning car, facing the terrifying Cujo under the scorching sun. The 1983 film adaptation, directed by Lewis Teague and starring Dee Wallace, deviated from King’s original ending, opting for a less grim conclusion.
According to Deadline, Netflix has secured a deal to transform King’s bestselling horror novel Cujo into a new feature film. Roy Lee, known for his work on Barbarian and Strange Darling, is set to produce, with the project currently seeking writers. This adaptation joins a growing list of King’s works being revisited, including The Monkey and the upcoming The Long Walk and The Running Man.
