Stephen King's Firestarter Remake Is Finally Fixing A Huge Casting Flaw
A new movie adaptation of Stephen King's Firestarter is on the way in 2022, one that fixes a regrettable casting error in past versions. Originally published by King in 1980, Firestarter isn't a superhero story, although in some ways it feels like a possible X-Men spinoff. At the center of the plot is Charlie McGee, a young girl who possesses pyrokinetic powers as a result of her parents both undergoing secret experiments prior to her birth. That might sound like an advantage on paper, but Charlie has trouble controlling her potentially deadly abilities.
