A CBS TV series based on a best-selling Stephen King novel will film in Wilmington, according to local film industry sources.
“Under the Dome,” a 13-episode series based on the author’s 2009 book, is expected to open production offices at EUE Screen Gems Studios next week. The show will air this summer.
“Under the Dome” is set in a small New England town suddenly and inexplicably sealed off from the rest of the world by an enormous transparent dome. The town’s inhabitants must deal with dire living conditions while searching for answers about the barrier, according to the network. “Under the Dome” will be produced by King and Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Television. Niels Arden Oplev – director of the original Swedish version of “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” – will direct the first episode. No casting details have been announced.
