<p>Moving beyond the <strong>eerie realm of <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/stranger-things/"><em>Stranger Things</em></a>&#8216; Upside Down, the Duffer Brothers</strong> are embarking on a new creative journey. Alongside David Harbour&#8217;s involvement, the masterminds behind the popular series are venturing into the adaptation of <strong>Stephen King and Peter Straub&#8217;s 1984 novel, The Talisman, </strong>exclusively for Netflix. This collaboration is set to fuse the talents of the Duffer Brothers, Steven Spielberg, and Paramount Television, promising a captivating blend of fantasy, horror, and science fiction.</p>
<p>As The Talisman prepares to make its mark on Netflix, its author, Stephen King, has taken a step forward by committing to finish the trilogy.</p>
<h2>From Stranger Things creators&#8217; The Talisman to completing the trilogy</h2>
<p><a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/stranger-things-creators-talisman-as-a-netflix-series/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Netflix is set to welcome an adaptation of The Talisman</a>, featuring the combined talents of Stephen King and Spielberg. Spielberg&#8217;s admiration for King and Straub&#8217;s work led him to secure the novel&#8217;s rights years ago. Now the project is finally taking shape. King&#8217;s recent announcement adds a new dimension to the endeavor as he contemplates penning a second sequel. Following <strong>The Talisman and Black House, which was published in 2001</strong>, this marks the next chapter in the tale.</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" style="border-radius: 12px;" src="https://open.spotify.com/embed/episode/775jyeXX5q7IBfZIE0Ho9c?utm_source=generator" width="100%" height="352" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p>During a conversation, King was queried about the possibility of crafting another dense, grand-scale epic similar to <em>IT, The Stand,</em> and <em>Under the Dome</em>. In response, King shared on the <em>Talking Sacred</em> podcast, <em>&#8220;Before he died, Peter sent me this long letter and said, ‘We aught to do the third one’&#8221;. </em>The prospect of this project entails incorporating both his and Straub&#8217;s individual ideas. This will potentially result in a lengthy book if King summons the courage to see it through. Although the first two books of the trilogy diverge significantly, they are intricately linked by the character Jack Sawyer.</p>

<p>Stephen King&#8217;s works finding their way to Netflix is a recurring phenomenon, and The Talisman is just the latest addition to this trend.</p>
