Starring Hiddleston as Charles “Chuck” Krantz, The Life of Chuck is based on King’s 2020 short story of the same name from the author’s anthology If It Bleeds. The novel is a collection of the legendary author’s four previously unpublished novellas, including The Life of Chuck, If It Bleeds, Rat, and Mr. Harrigan’s Phone, which received a film adaptation back in 2022 starring IT’s Jaeden Martell and Donald Sutherland.
“Chuck travels backwards in time viewing his life after dying. In viewing past events, he becomes obsessed with a former student that might have a special gift,” the film’s description reads.
In addition to Hiddleston, The Life of Chuck also features some of the big names in the film industry, including Chiwetel Ejiofor (12 Years a Slave), Karen Gillan (Guardians of the Galaxy), Jacob Tremblay (Wonder), Mark Hamill (Star Wars), Matthew Lillard (Five Nights at Freddy’s), David Dastmalchian (Late Night with the Devil), and Heather Langenkamp (A Nightmare on Elm Street).
The rest of the cast includes Harvey Guillen, Benjamin Pajak, Trinity Jo-li Bliss, Mia Sara, Q’Orianka Kilcher, Antonio Raul Corbo, Annalise Basso, Samantha Sloyan, Rahul Kohli, Matt Biedel, Sauriyan Sapkota, Saidah Arrika Ekulona, Kate Siegel, Carl Lumbly, Michael Trucco, Violet McGraw, and Molly C. Quinn.
