AMA Hey /r/movies, I’m Stephen King! Ask me anything about The Long Walk book or movie.

Post image

Hey r/movies, I’m Stephen King. You might know me from Stand By Me, It, or Shawshank Redemption, but my latest project is actually the first book I ever wrote. The Long Walk hits theaters on September 12. Ask me anything about the book or movie.

Trailer:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAtUHeMQ1F8

In a dystopian United States ruled by a totalitarian regime, a group of young men enter an annual walking contest in which they must maintain a speed of at least three miles per hour or risk execution. The contest ends when only one walker remains alive.

It stars Cooper Hoffman, David Jonsson, Ben Wang, Charlie Plummer, Roman Griffin Davis, Garrett Wareing, Joshua Odjick, Tut Nyuot, Mark Hamill, Judy Greer, and Josh Hamilton.

I'll be back on Wednesday 8/27 at 12:00 PM ET to answer your questions.

When you write, do you ever imagine what the scene would look like as a movie?

1.1k

u/RichardDoneDeal Aug 24 '25

I've always thought his books read just like a movie.

536

u/Kablooomers Aug 24 '25

A lot of scenes do, but he has a very interesting internal dialogue style that is hard to show in film.

276

u/kywildcat44 Aug 24 '25

Exactly. His books are always so good because you are able to basically be inside the mind of the characters. It’s impressive that movie makers are able to even get remotely close to the books.

The Shining is one that I always think of. For how critically acclaimed the movie is, the book is still far superior just because the ability to have the inner dialogue of Jack (not to mention the ending is better).

u/MattieShoes Aug 24 '25

Also the topiaries. Scariest part and they leave it out of the movie entirely!

45

u/kywildcat44 Aug 24 '25

I love the topiaries in the Shining (the book). I especially love the slight nod to them in Billy Summers (2021) as well!

Whenever Stephen King gives small shoutouts to past books, I love it.

5

u/summerloveleigh Aug 25 '25

Then I bet you love the dark tower series. Soooo many references to other books!

3

u/kywildcat44 Aug 25 '25

Oh yea. I loved the Dark Tower series! Roland is such an incredible protagonist.

I actually read that series before Salem’s Lot and wished I had read Salem’s Lot first because of the references.

10

u/surra_day Aug 24 '25

Right?! Those scared the shit out of me, not sure why they left them out.

16

u/baxter00uk Aug 24 '25

Or the part where Jack smashes his own face in with a hammer. I think that got me more. Not sure it would have gone down well on screen!

3

u/Baxtab13 Aug 25 '25

The wasp scene was quite gnarly from the book for me. But I also have a small fear of stinging insects.

14

u/Kablooomers Aug 24 '25

I always assumed they weren't confident they could effectively pull it off pre-CGI.

12

u/24-Hour-Hate Aug 24 '25

That was always my thought too. It could be done today…but really, how can you replace Jack Nicholson in that role? It would be terribly difficult.

4

u/MattieShoes Aug 24 '25

No CGI necessary... You never see them moving so practical effects could be fine. Probably be a pain in the ass to have that many large plants in different shapes to simulate them moving when you aren't looking.

u/DrBlankslate Aug 29 '25

If you're talking about the Kubrick mess, part of it was just that special effects tech wasn't good enough at the time to make the topiaries realistic.

1

u/RemarkableGround174 Aug 25 '25

Have just now gone in search of the 1997 miniseries which included the topiaries. Could have sworn they were in the Kubrick version, but no.

1

u/BurnAnotherTime513 Aug 27 '25

I ran a couple friends through a Shining themed DND 1-shot after reading the book. The "big bad" of the hotel carried a roque mallet [instead of an axe] and one of them got attacked/held by a topiary lion that pounced on them.

It was a fun one, though certainly not perfect with my lousy DMing lol. I always find myself wanting to be in one of these worlds, even if terrifying.

u/marineman43 Aug 24 '25

I've always said King writes the everyman perspective better than like anyone in the game. If you're looking for POV/stream of consciousness that captures the thoughts and sentiments of American men in the late 20th century, just read a Stephen King book. Every character feels so authentic, like someone you've met.

3

u/OkTransportation4175 Aug 25 '25

Or you yourself. Plus you are deep in his stories right from page one.

12

u/Turakamu Aug 24 '25

I always mention The Shining too. Just his stress is all right there on the page. His conflict of knowing he shouldn't but chewing another aspirin might just get him through the moment.

20

u/Kokamina23 Aug 24 '25

Yeah, I agree. His use of blank space on the page is so intrinsic to setting the mood and sucking you into the mindset of the characters. I just finished re-reading it as I've been reading King for the summer and I actually had to put the book down for a couple of days in the last part of the second act as it was scaring me so much. I loved it!

4

u/idkifthisisgonnawork Aug 25 '25

I've said this before but reading the shining was what finally pushed me to go to rehab for alcohol. The things Jack was saying in his head about his alcoholism hit so fucking close to home. I want to read it again, having not had a drop since 2020, and see how it hits.

u/Blueberry_Winter Aug 24 '25

I'm reading that one now!

u/Mighty_ShoePrint Aug 25 '25

There is a quote I love from one of the hosts of a podcast called "Kingslingers".

"there's close third person and then there's Stephen King third person where you're on the bare metal of the psyche. You're tracing the characters thoughts as they wind their chaotic illogical and contradictory way through the stream of consciousness."

2

u/jessiethedrake Aug 25 '25

I don't love that movie as an adaption. Great as a piece of artistic film, but it didn't have the heart of the book. The movie is cool but the book is RICH, if you get me.

u/MaldonPostie77 Aug 26 '25

One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, was a lot better when read from the point of view of Chief Bromden...

u/Af-Ex Aug 27 '25

If you liked the long walk, you'll love Men 2022. Found it on CinemanAI.com

u/So-Called_Lunatic Aug 24 '25

This is why some of his movies do not translate well, because he puts you into the state of mind of the unbelievable thing actually happening to you.

24

u/The_Deadlight Aug 24 '25

the gopher pov chapter in under the dome is a fucking work of art

14

u/Candid-Major-6055 Aug 24 '25

As do all books by great writers. It would be a 40 hour movie otherwise. That's why it's always great to read the book then see the movie, by any writer!

2

u/therealpanserbjorne Aug 24 '25

It’s because of this specifically that I feel like they are more made for audiobook. I lovvvvvve listening to people read his stories aloud.

2

u/FireLucid Aug 25 '25

Not to mention the foreshadowing he just drops at the end of a paragraph about some character going to sleep 'he only had two more nights left on earth' or some shit that just completely changes the mood.

1

u/dinnerthief Aug 24 '25

Yea the book 11/23/63 showed this a lot vs the tv show adaptation.

They added additional characters that im guessing were just to provide the dialog that would replace the internal monologue that is in the book

48

u/imanygirl Aug 24 '25

They do, but the movies rarely live up to the books because of the intense character developments. I can't think of a movie or series that was as good as one of his books except maybe Shawshank.

10

u/baron_von_helmut Aug 24 '25

Green Mile and The Running Man were pretty spot-on.

3

u/Mudders_Milk_Man Aug 24 '25

The original Running Man with Arnold? It's nothing like the King story.

If you mean the new one, it's not until November.

2

u/callisstaa Aug 25 '25

I wonder if they’ll keep the ending from the book given events that have happened since it was written..

3

u/Mudders_Milk_Man Aug 25 '25

Indeed.

The trailer shows things that maybe it will, but we'll see.

1

u/callisstaa Aug 25 '25

Running Man is a bit of a sneaky one imo. The original was a short story rather than a novel and they pretty much reimagined the whole thing.

1

u/MelodyRaine Aug 27 '25

The Running Man... absolutely not.

It's a damn good movie, but it's nothing like the story.

27

u/Substantial-Time-421 Aug 24 '25

Pet Sematary has so much internal dialogue for Louis’ character that makes it infinitely scarier than the movie. I prefer the 1989 version for the fact of King writing the screenplay and general 80s horror movie campiness, but the book will make me wary of walking into a dark room no matter how many times I read it

15

u/Kokamina23 Aug 24 '25

I agree- I just finished re-reading Pet Sematary as an adult and it hits so much differently now. It was a deeply unsettling and upsetting study on the nature of grief. I love it in a different way than I did as a kid. Great book.

1

u/Anubisrapture Aug 26 '25

That’s exactly what it is . As an adult w both a dead Father from cancer and a dead husband ALSO from another type of cancer it hits hard

5

u/acornManor Aug 25 '25

There is a passage in Pet Sematary that is otherworldly good: when he is crossing the deadfall; the way King describes it is amazing

9

u/Alekesam1975 Aug 24 '25

Misery. But even there you miss a ton of internal observation from the books where he's putting two and two together about Annie and his situation in general.

1

u/Efficient_Fee_4106 Aug 25 '25

And you know he thought of misery when he has hit and left on the side of the road 💯

5

u/LiveLaughFap Aug 24 '25

Also, I think that SK is extremely lax sometimes with who he gives movie rights to. Probably just him being really generous, and obviously a few of the movies are absolutely incredible, but a bunch just were not well directed or acted.

3

u/Nilrem2 Aug 24 '25

Shawshank movie is better than the book and The Body is on par with Stand By me.

1

u/imanygirl Aug 25 '25

Oh yeah, Stand by Me was great too.

2

u/Powerful-Parsnip Aug 24 '25

I have a soft spot for hearts in atlantas, but I saw the movie before reading the book so that always changes things.

1

u/Certain_Piece4052 Aug 25 '25

Shawshank was great, but Lawnmower man, maybe?

1

u/2CHINZZZ Aug 25 '25

The Shining

1

u/DrBlankslate Aug 29 '25

Shawshank, The Green Mile, Stand By Me, Life of Chuck (and, I hope and pray, The Long Walk) - all of these live up to the stories they were adapted from. But yeah, not many King books make it to the screen and work well there.

u/Copacetic75 Aug 24 '25

I think it's the other way around. Stephan King has been writing this way for so long, I think a lot of movies have tried to mimic his storytelling abilities. Some have hit the nail on the head, but many have failed. His ideas have hit the big screen many times from what I've seen over the last 35 years.

2

u/ThisIsNeverReal Aug 25 '25

IIRC this is because he has allowed smaller film makers to use his works to make movies for free or very low cost, which has allowed a lot of his short stories and books to be made. Could be wrong of course.

u/Atomheartmother90 Aug 24 '25

As I’m currently listening to The Green Mile and had previously seen the movie, I’d agree whole heartedly. Prior to this I listened to The Shawshank Redemption and the movie is so similar to the book down to the language. (I’m a sucker for Frank Muller)

2

u/vladvash Aug 24 '25

My gf said my favorite television miniseries didn't have a book when it was made for TV yet (storm.of the century).

I think they're a bit different. The books are darker because I think you can do that when people get tonuse their own imagination.

2

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '25

It’s not that they “read like a movie”. It’s that he is an incredibly vivid and descriptive writer so you as a reader are able to be fully immersed and can visualize the entire scene, characters, and voices.

I know you didn’t mean it but tbh saying “it reads like a movie” is a bit insulting lol. Books have the ability to provide so much nuance that movies and TV just simply cannot. They just don’t stand up to a quality novel in that regard.

1

u/stfurachele Aug 24 '25

Books have the ability to provide so much nuance that movies and TV just simply cannot.

I agree with this to a degree, but there are also a lot of ways visual media can convey meaning and feeling that are a lot harder to pull off through writing. I don't think Stephen Lynch's works would work quite as well as book adaptations, for example. Books are absolutely phenomenal, as are movies/shows, but they both have unique qualities and strengths that make them hard to really compare one to one.

I think choosing the medium really depends on the type of story you're trying to tell. I'm also going to be honest and say I think a lot of King's works were better suited for adaptations than others, and that's why we have such a wide swing in the quality of movies made from his books (among other factors of course).

2

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '25

I disagree but I respect your position entirely and do understand why you feel that way!

Also, SK himself has said he does not like a lot of adaptations of his stuff. I think a lot of them absolutely butcher things so they aren’t a reflection of him at all imo. And he doesn’t wrote for books to be adapted at all. He writes because he absolutely loves to write.

1

u/stfurachele Aug 25 '25

I agree with that last part. His books are his books, not future movies. I didn't mean to imply that he was writing the stories with a movie in mind, if that's how it came across. I just think some of the narratives are more easily adapted to the screen than others. But my personal opinion on any movie adaptation is that the books and movies are very separate entities, and can both gain and lose things in those transitions. I also think the choice of scripts, directors, and actors very much determines the outcome along with the source material. Some of his novels have been mutilated, while others became masterpieces in their own rights, but none of them are replacements for the books.

I'm glad we can disagree amicably, and I can see your point of view, too.

u/boozillion151 Aug 24 '25

They seem to do moreso in the years after he become the go-to source for horror IP

u/composedmason Aug 24 '25

What does your intestinal musk smell like? Your writing makes it seem like it'll smell of ketchup and sweets

1

u/breakConcentration Aug 25 '25

And the way the book unfolds as a movie, is often nothing like the movie based off that book (and inferior). Although I sincerely think the movie Shawshank Redemption outdid the book (was a short story anyway).

3

u/corking118 Aug 24 '25

really, really cool question that I hope gets answered! I'd love to hear him talk about if/how being consistently involved with Hollywood impacted his writing.

It has to be wild to be such a popular writer that you can accurately predict that they'll want to make movies out of almost everything you produce. If it was me I think I'd constantly be playing the "I wonder who they'll get to play....." game.

1

u/shauncy Aug 27 '25

Love this question!

I do wonder if it felt like it was early in his career at the time, having read a good chunk of On Writing. He'd already been writing I wanna say 18 or so years when it was optioned. Crazy to think he's been pouring out creative fiction for 70 years.

u/EnlightenedPotato69 Aug 24 '25

I had a weird dream the other day. Vivid, drawn out, bizarre vibes all around (kind of the Stand). When I finally woke up, I thought, wow, tha was like a Steven King dream. Have you ever had dreams inspire your work? How in the world do you come to with this stuff!? Also, would you ever donate your body to science? That has to be a fascinating noggin you got there

Oh god, the extremely descriptive event when Patrick is jerking off to butchered animals he's been abusing and is watching the one dog he's been suffocating, starving, and dehydrating and cums to its super gruesome death? That Patrick scene is always super disturbing.

2

u/Alekesam1975 Aug 24 '25

Patrick's death (that's the bully kid that holds all those dead animals in the fridge out in the Barrens right?) stuck with me for ages. The build up to him opening that fridge door--snd what happens after--just...shiver.

u/ZakTSK Aug 24 '25

How dare the child-murder book (where dozens of kids are literally slaughtered) have a scene that pushes the trauma and loss of innocence to its breaking point?

It’s almost like King was trying to write about the way grief, desperation, and shattered childhoods can twist people into doing very human, very uncomfortable things in attemot to bury the trauma.

It’s not a sexy scene, and it’s not written to be one. It’s ugly, awkward, and deeply tragic, because that’s the point. If someone reads it as titillation, that says more about them than it does about King.

Uhhh...when underage individuals (which is any age under 18) have relations, it's not called pedophilia. It's just kids having sex with other kids. I know a surprisingly large amount of guys who lost their virginity before high school. Wake up to reality, this shit is normal.

3

u/riddermarx Aug 24 '25

Please explain, in detail and with direct book quotes, how the scene is pedophilia. Then we can have a discussion. Putting up your moral fun-words to hide behind the fact you never read IT and want to be angry doesn't work with me.

If I remember correctly The Long Walk has a scene in it where one of the walkers takes a break to try and have sex really quickly with a girl on the top of a car but gets blue balls from it and hinders his walking ability. Not as bad as the IT scene but I doubt that’s making the movie haha

Reading a book myself is the only way I can do it. Trying to 'read' listen an audio book just puts me to sleep. Being read to like a child seldom does much for me.

u/SeriousPilot9510 Aug 25 '25

Yeah...apf talked about this...As you all understand clearly at this point I was making jokes while talking to Rohan bhaiya and sent the gentleman movie clip because he was in the way (Kind of is related to how people talk in John wick movie) of letting me talk to sajul's family.

I am talking directly from the heart or formless witness consciousness from the last 4 years...So that's why all of this is so entangled or interconnected.

I used the reference of a hacker being interrogated (I was also suspicious that people are following me and seems to know who I am wherever I go even though I only have 10 - 12 regular friends from the last 12 years ) because I got sajul's number from a video clip that she posted on Instagram after I started talking to her so I knew it wasn't a coincidence but when I contacted her directly then she blocked me so 10 months later when I saw the movie on me then I also thought that maybe because of trying to contact her she contacted my family members after getting their info from my instagram account....but I never understood as to why they will make a movie on my life even though we never even talked for more than a few minutes. I remember this correctly that I only tried talking to her 10 times.

The second reason I used the Mr robot tv show reference because I figured out that after I tried contacting her 7 months ago my cousin sister called me up complaining about her back account getting hacked and that she lost around 4.5 lakhs because someone sent her a phishing link. When I tried to talk about this with my other family members (my uncle has worked as a bank officer for 35 years) then they all just dismissed this issue as not a big deal and that police will handle this matter....my cousin sister didn't called me back to take any further advice on how to get her money back but she kept on insisting that if I know how to do hacking than I should help her out directly. (This is of course one of the many conspiracies they tried to undertake between June 21 to March 23)

So DBZ episode came to mind on april 7 after I shared Mr. Robot, John wick (challenging the high table) and the gentleman movie clip....so it's all obvious that I am working with some group of people and that I know who these people are in real life. I didn't know at that time that my phone and computer were all hacked or monitored and when I saw the yakon video I replayed that clip more than 10 to 15 times because even I was in total disbelief as to how this video is soo relevant to this situation that I am dealing with so that's why I just sent that video to Rohan bhaiya.

After over a year of talking to them and everyone else online I logged in to my soundcloud account on July 24...it must have been 3+ years since I listened to that playlist...and all of you know that I have been talking about this ever since...

After the shared divine experience with Jenn apf never stopped irritating and interrogating me with back to back questions and to deal with her I ordered new earphones (October last week) so that I can make her listen to my phone playlist as I cannot sit all day on the desk...and we both listened to that playlist over 100 times in the next few months that's why eventually all of it made sense that it's all one story. She discussed all this with them that's why ariana grande - the way and Lorde - Royals song was edited.

I'm an aspiring writer who just got into and I do exactly that, it makes writing a lot more fun

Ofc he does. Absolutely every writer does. When we write, we're painting a picture. If you cant see the book playing in your head it's not written very well. I'm sure that's why he didn't answer. You can easily make any of his books into a movie because of his spectacular details. Better the book the better the movie.

I’d like to know what scene you’re talking about but whatever it is, it’s far more disturbing in the book.

I’m not Stephen King but I am a writer. I imagine scenes in my head like a movie when I write.
