Description: THE STAND is Stephen King’s apocalyptic vision of a world decimated by plague and embroiled in an elemental struggle between good and evil. The fate of mankind rests on the frail shoulders of the 108-year-old Mother Abagail (Whoopi Goldberg) and a handful of survivors. Their worst nightmares are embodied in a man with a lethal smile and unspeakable powers: Randall Flagg (Alexander Skarsgård), the Dark Man. THE STAND will close with a new coda written by the famed author himself. CBS.com

Status: This show is planned as a mini-series and will have a new Coda to wrap it up that was written by Stephen King. It is unlikely that they will decide to carry this beyond the story from the book, but never say never with television networks.
