Filming of iconic horror writer Stephen King’s Firestarter re-make is officially set to begin in June.

Having confirmed some of the re-makes cast over the past few months, the development at last seems to be heading forward.

The author’s 1980 novel was brought to life on the big screens but terribly failed to make a name for itself despite consisting of a star studded cast. Ever since its initial announcement all the way back in 2010, enthusiasts of the sci-fi horror story have been eagerly waiting.
