Recently there’s been a few films originally planned for streaming that have instead opted for a theatrical run – and in the case of last week’s “Alien: Romulus” that change worked out handsomely.
Rarer these day though are films going the other way, but that is what’s happening with New Line’s new film adaptation of Stephen King’s second novel “Salem’s Lot” which is coming to Max in October.
Now, Warner Bros. Discovery has finally unveiled the first photos from the vampire thriller via Vanity Fair.
Lewis Pullman stars as author Ben Mears, a man who returns to his hometown of Jerusalem’s Lot only to find it is slowly being taken over by a bloodthirsty vampire.
Alfre Woodard, Bill Camp, William Sadler, Makenzie Leigh, John Benjamin Hickey, Pilou Asbæk, Jordan Preston Carter, and Spencer Treat Clark also star.
Veteran horror scribe Gary Dauberman wrote and directed the movie which James Wan produced.

‘Salem’s Lot,’ based on the 1975 novel, the film follows author Ben Mears who returns to his small town in search of inspiration for his next book—and instead finds his fellow residents are being picked off one-by-one.
