Warner Bros. Discovery officially announced Tuesday that the adaptation of Stephen King’s “Salem’s Lot” will stream on Max sometime in 2024, pivoting from a proposed theatrical release.

The New Line-produced feature is an adaptation of King’s bestselling 1975 novel of the same name. It follows author Ben Mears, who returns to his childhood home of Jerusalem’s Lot in search of inspiration for his next book only to discover his hometown is being preyed upon by a bloodthirsty vampire.

Lewis Pullman stars as Ben alongside Alfre Woodard, Makenzie Leigh, Bill Camp, Spencer Treat Clark, Pilou Asbæk and John Benjamin Hickey.

The film marks a reunion of the producing teams behind the horror franchises “The Conjuring” and “It.”
