“The Help” director Tate Taylor is set to pen and direct a film adaptation of the upcoming Stephen King novel “Joyland” for Wyolah Films.
Set in a North Carolina amusement park in 1973, the story follows a college student who moonlights as a carnival worker.
There, he confronts the legacy of a vicious murder, the fate of a dying child, and the ways both will forever change his life.
Taylor and John Norris will produce.
