‘Lisey’s Story’ Trailer: Julianne Moore Is an Unhinged Widow in Stephen King Series (VIDEO)
Apple TV+ is looking to the king of horror for its next limited series with Lisey’s Story, based on the best-selling novel by Stephen King.
The author has adapted and written the series which is set to debut Friday, June 4, 2021 on the streaming platform. Oscar-winning actress Julianne Moore leads the all-star eight-episode drama and viewers are getting their first look with a newly-released trailer.
Lisey’s Story is a personal and pensive thriller following Lisey Landon (Moore) two years after the death of her famous novelist husband, Scott Landon (played by Clive Owen). When a series of unsettling events take place, Lisey is forced to remember moments from her marriage that she’d deliberately blocked from her mind.
The trailer offers a look at the twisty tale that includes surreal landscapes and imagery as well as a talented cast of actors. Among the limited series’ cast are Moore, Owen, Joan Allen, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Dane DeHaan, Ron Cephas Jones, and Sung Kang.
