BAG OF BONES, the mini-series from Mick Garris, is coming at us in little over a month on A&E, so to help get you excited, the official Facebook page for the movie has been updated with a batch of new stills. Nothing epic or spooky, but at least you get a peek at how Garris and Co. are depicting the Stephen King book’s characters.
The mini-series, starring Pierce Brosnan, Melissa George, Annabeth Gish, Anika Noni Rose, William Schallert, Matt Frewer and Jason Priestley, airs for two nights on DECEMBER 11th and 12th.
In “Bag of Bones,” bestselling novelist Mike Noonan (Brosnan) is unable to stop grieving after the sudden death of his wife Jo (Gish). Suffering from writer’s block, a dream inspires him to return to the couple’s lakeside retreat in western Maine. While there, Mike befriends an attractive young widow, Mattie (George) and her daughter Kyra (Carmichael), and becomes involved in a custody battle with the child’s enormously wealthy grandfather, Max (Schallert). Though his ability to write suddenly returns, Mike is plagued by ever-escalating nightmares and mysterious ghostly visitations from Sara Tidwell (Rose), a blues singer whose spirit lingers in the house. As he is haunted by the many secrets at the lake, Mike comes to realize that his late wife still has something to tell him.
We’re still waiting on an official trailer for this sucker; shouldn’t be long now…
