'Dr. Sleep' is the sequel to one of the King Of Horror's earliest hits, 'The Shining'.
ATLANTA – How would you like to be a stand-in for the sequel to one of the most legendary horror films of all time? Well, here’s your chance.
“Doctor Sleep” is the name of Stephen King’s sequel to his 1977 novel “The Shining.” After the overwhelming success of the movie adaptation in 1980, King wrote and released “Doctor Sleep” in 2013.
“Doctor Sleep” continues the story of middle-aged Danny Torrance trying to shed his father’s alcoholism. After meeting a young girl with the most powerful shining he’s ever seen, Danny is forced to face the demons of his past and of the present in order to save her from a horrifying evil known as “The True Knot.”
Ewan McGregor will star as Danny and Rebecca Ferguson (Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation) will portray the main antagonist, Rose the Hat.
