Apparently King co-writes the screenplay himself with the director (I'm not sure he's ever co-written a movie before, he always seems to get sole credit on his screenplays). Baxley also did Rose Red, which along with Storm of the Century was pretty solid as far as tv goes, so it seems like good news to me.
