LISEY’S STORY

Based on the 2006 novel of the same name by Stephen King, directed by Pablo Larraín, and produced by J. J. Abrams, “Lisey’s Story” is an American horror drama miniseries starring Julianne Moore as Lisey and premiered on Friday, June 4, 2021, on Apple TV+.

SEASON DETAILS:

Lisey (Julianne Moore), still mourning the death of her late husband and world-renowned author Scott Landon (Clive Owen), is left to piece together the fractured timeline of their romance. From the early days of his fledgling career to their beachside wedding to the day of an unexpected attack, Lisey (pronounced LEE-see, by the way) seems to be captive to those time-hopping thoughts, unsure what to do next.

All the while, the show is meticulously hinting at a tranquil world beyond memory. It’s rendered in stark blues and oranges, complete with marbleized faces and onlookers both rapt and wrapped. What it all means isn’t abundantly clear, but the longer “Lisey’s Story” goes, the more it succeeds as a sensory experience than one governed by logic.

“I would never have gotten involved with this thing at my age, if it wasn’t,” King, who’s 73, tells EW. “You know, they’re all my favorites. I love them all. Some of them are difficult children to love, some of them a little bit easier. This is a little bit difficult to love, but I’ve always loved the story and that’s the reason I got involved.”
