This is, of course, the innovation take on King's material that will consist of a film trilogy and a limited series of six episodes of a TV series to be broadcast between films one and two.

Writes Deadline, "This marks Verheiden's return to NBC and UMS following his turn as a supervising producer on Heroes. He also was a writer/co-exec producer on the NBCU series Battlestar Galactica, which ran on Syfy. He most recently served as a co-executive producer of TNT's upcoming sci-fi series Falling Skies, from DreamWorks TV."
