The film version of Stephen King’s bestselling novel Cell<\/em>, starring John Cusack, will begin shooting in September.<\/p>\n

The film will be directed by Tod “Skip” Williams, who gave us Paranormal Activity 2<\/em>. JoBlo<\/a> reports that principal photography begins in September and gives the following synopsis: “When a powerful signal is broadcast across mobile networks worldwide, cell phone users’ minds are instantly and dangerously re-programmed. Heading north through New England in search of his wife and son, Clay Riddell (Cusack) is joined by a group of survivors hoping to fend off the bloodthirsty and hyper-connected ‘phoners.'”<\/p>\n

The film adaptation of Cell<\/em> has been in the works for years now. Eli Roth was originally set to direct the film in 2007 but that version fell apart. Cell<\/em> will be Cusack’s third Stephen King adaptation after Stand By Me<\/em> and 1408<\/em>.<\/p>\n

You can buy 1408 – Director’s Cut Edition on DVD for £9.69 at Amazon.co.uk.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
