Ewan McGregor Will Star In a Sequel to The Shining

Because there are an endless number of Stephen King adaptations in the works at any given time, it's just been announced the Ewan McGregor will star in a sequel to The Shining, playing a grown-up Danny Torrance -- you know, the "redrum" kid.

Doctor Sleep follows a grown-up Torrance who uses booze to deal with his "shining" powers, but starts using them to help hospice patients and winds up befriending a young girl with similar abilities and the two quickly find themselves being hunted down by others like them.

Doctor Sleep will be directed by Mike Flanagan
