The Hunger games Filmmaker Says The Long Walk is his all-time favorite King novel, which he positions as a sort of coming-of-sague pic featuring a group of young men walking for their lives.
“This is my favorite Stephen King Novel, I read it 27 years ago. The rights hot bought and then came back up. Roy Lee my producer brought it to me. For me, it was the conceit that was very interesting. You can imagine yourself in the shoes of this young men. Is about these young men, their comraderies, the love that forms.
