Director Mike Flanagan and producer Trevor Macy on re-creating the Overlook Hotel, casting 'The Shining' doppelgängers and necessary diversions from Stephen King's book in 'Doctor Sleep.'
“Doctor Sleep” director Mike Flanagan on Stephen King and creating a follow-up to “The Shining” and following in the footsteps of both Stephen King and Stanley Kubrick.
In King’s version of “The Shining,” Jack Torrance sacrifices himself to save Danny and his wife Wendy as the ghosts of the hotel struggle to possess him. Instead, Flanagan gave that fate to Dan as a way of reconciling the differences between King’s book and Kubrick’s film. “It also made sense in the context of the story,” said Macy. “We were returning to the place where the trauma was inflicted. The fact that he doesn’t pass it on was pretty powerful from a character point of view.”
Roger Dale Floyd as young Danny Torrance in the Warner Bros.’ supernatural thriller “Doctor Sleep.” The film takes place after the events of “The Shining” and marries aspects of both King’s 2013 novel of the same name and Stanley Kubrick’s 1980 film.
