Earlier this month, Warner Bros released a new trailer for Pet Sematary that revealed a key change from the source material. Unlike in the original Stephen King novel, where toddler Gage Creed is the one whos killed and later resurrected in the eponymous graveyard, the remake is having Gages sister, Ellie, take his place in the truck accident. Needless to say this change has generated a lot of chatter amongst Pet Sematary fans, but according to Jason Clarke, whos playing patriarch Louis Creed in the latest adaptation, King is okay with this particular creative liberty being taken. As Clarke put it:
Its pretty easy to justify [the change]. You cant play that movie with a three-year-old boy. You end up with a doll or some animated thing. So youre going to get a much deeper, richer story by swapping for a seven-year-old or nine-year-old girl. The reward will come. People who are upset will hopefully see the benefit of it. But a lot of people didnt have an issue. Stephen King didnt have an issue with it.
It goes without saying that when adapting a book into a movie, there are going to be changes to the narrative not only so it can fit within a certain runtime, but also stand out from the source material. This latest Pet Sematary movie also needs to differentiate itself from the previous one that came out in 1989, and killing Ellie Creed instead of Gage Creed is one of the ways it will do so. Stephen King hasnt always approved of changes made to his tales, as evidenced by how he feels about Stanley Kubricks adaptation of The Shining, but according to Jason Clarke, he doesnt have an issue with Pet Sematary killing off the other Creed child.
Producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura previously noted that Pet Sematary directors Kevin Klsch and Dennis Widmyer were nervous about making this change to Stephen Kings story, but decided to move forward with it because they felt it was too difficult to get the three-year-old actors playing Gage Creed (Hugo Lavoie and Lucas Lavoie) to do what that kid is doing in the original book. Clearly Jason Clarke agrees with this decision, saying later in his interview with Flickering Myth:
As an actor, ultimately, you dont care. Its like saying how do you approach playing a real person?. You have to serve whats on the page and what the director wants and what happens on the day. You dont have any choice.
Well have to wait and see just how many other changes are in store for the new Pet Sematary movie, but considering that theres been a Stephen King-aissance unfolding over the last several years with movies like IT and TV shows like Castle Rock, therell probably be a fair amount of folks who check out Pet Sematary either to watch the tale unfold for the first time or to compare this adaptation to the original version. Along with the previously mentioned actors, Pet Sematary stars Amy Seimetz as Rachel Creed, Jet Laurence as Ellie Creed, John Lithgow as Jud Crandall, Obssa Ahmed as Victor Pascow and Alyssa Brooke Levine as Zelda Goldman.
Pet Sematary scares its way into theaters on April 5. Dont forget to look through our 2019 release schedule to find out what other movies are opening later this year.
