A new trailer has landed for The Life of Chuck.

The upcoming sci-fi drama, which won the People’s Choice Award at last year’s Toronto International Film Festival, is the latest story from acclaimed novelist Stephen King to be adapted into a film, following in the footsteps of other King works including Stand by Me (1986), Misery (1990) and The Shawshank Redemption (1994).
