Dread Central caught up with Mick Garris at the “Never Sleep Again” signing event held this weekend at Dark Delicacies in Burbank.Garris shared that he will be directing a four-hour miniseries adaptation of Stephen King’s Bag of Bones which will air on network television in 2011.”Bag of Bones is something we tried to do as a feature for two or three years,” Garris stated. “But the way features are now, if it’s not about teenagers or a sequel or a remake, forget it. We wanted to do something much more adult and passionate than studios are making now. It’s a ghost story for grown-ups. Television is the only place you can do that.”Production on Bag of Bones will begin in June in Alaska (The original story was set in Maine). Garris also added that they will hopefully be casting their lead this week so stay tuned.
