Ready for another take on Stephen King’s Carrie? Tough, for one’s on the way regardless.

Via Collider, FX and MGM is developing a miniseries based on King’s iconic 1974 novel about troubled Carrie White and the telekinetic powers at her fingertips.

The only piece of information known about this new version of Carrie is that the lead role is likely to be played by either a trans performer or an actress of colour.

Famously, Sissy Spacek headlined Brian De Palma’s 1976 Carrie offering in a movie that featured some of the hottest rising stars in Hollywood at the time – such as Amy Irving, Nancy Allen, William Katt, and John Travolta.

In subsequent years, 1999 served up the so-so (at best!) The Rage: Carrie 2, featuring Emily Bergl as Carrie White’s half-sister, Rachel. 2002 then delivered a TV movie do-over of Carrie headlined by Angela Bettis, and 2013 later saw Chloe Grace Moretz take the titular role in yet another new version of Carrie.

As ever, expect more on FX’s Carrie series as we get it.
