James Wan's Upcoming Horror Adaptation Is The Thing Sequel I've Longed To See

James Wan produces the horror series Teacup, set for October 2024, which feels very inspired by The Thing. Teacup adapts Robert R. McCammon's Stinger, but moves the setting from the desert to rural Georgia. Teacup will modernize Stinger, focusing on the family drama and scaling back to a more intimate framework.
James Wan is producing an upcoming horror series that I believe will be a worthy successor to The Thing. I'm one of the biggest fans of John Carpenter's movie output there is, with The Thing being my personal favorite. This 1982 chiller stranded twelve men in an Antarctic research outpost with a shape-shifting alien monster. Critics ripped the film to pieces upon release, but over time, it's come to be recognized as one of the best horror movies ever made.
I'm still disappointed a Thing sequel by Carpenter never happened, though rumors suggest the filmmaker is involved with a possible Blumhouse reboot.
