SAW Star Tobin Bell Cast in Stephen King's MY PRETTY PONY

Saw star Tobin Bell is set to star alongside Noah Jupe (Suburbicon) in a feature film adaptation of Stephen King's short story My Pretty Pony.

If you're not familiar with the story, it was published in 1989 and it follows an elderly man, "his death rapidly approaching, takes his young grandson up onto a hill behind his house and gives the boy his pocket watch. Then, standing among falling apple blossoms, the man also 'gives instruction' on the nature of time: how when you grow up, it begins to move faster and faster, slipping away from you in great chunks if you don't hold tightly onto it. Time is a pretty pony, with a wicked heart."

This is one of the few stories that I've never read of King's but I'm totally intrigued! Luke Jaden is directing the film from a script he adapted. Shooting will take place in Michigan this spring.
