Carrie Series Wraps Filming Under Mike Flanagan

The television adaptation of Carrie, helmed by writer-director and showrunner Mike Flanagan, has officially wrapped principal photography, marking a key milestone ahead of its planned release on Amazon Prime Video. The news signals that the eight-episode horror-drama based on Carrie by Stephen King is now moving into post-production.

The series follows several previous screen versions of King’s debut novel, including the iconic 1976 film, but represents a major shift by expanding the story into a full television season. Flanagan, known for his serialized horror work, serves as writer, executive producer and director for select episodes. The progression into wrap stage indicates the project is advancing toward its next phase ahead of release.

Flanagan’s track record with King adaptations such as The Life of Chuck, Doctor Sleep and Gerald’s Game positions him as a familiar but evolving voice for this story. The production employed Canadian filming dates in Vancouver and aimed to bring new elements to the story of high-schooler Carrie White, her oppressive mother Margaret and the telekinetic powers that change everything. Cast members include Summer H. Howell as Carrie White and Samantha Sloyan as Margaret White. They are joined by Matthew Lillard, Amber Midthunder and Kate Siegel.

The original novel, published in 1974, has inspired multiple adaptations and remains a cornerstone of horror storytelling. This new series stretches the narrative into an episodic format that allows for deeper exploration of character and environment. Flanagan’s creative signature, blending psychological tension with rich atmosphere, continues to evolve in this version. Production sources state filming began in mid-June 2025 and concluded in late October 2025 in Vancouver.

Production wrap does not equate to an official release date, and the series’ premiere timing has not yet been publicly revealed. While Flanagan and his team begin post-production work, viewers and fans of King’s catalogue will watch for further announcements on trailer drops, episode count confirmation and global streaming availability.

Looking ahead, Amazon-linked creators typically unveil key footage at major industry events such as Comic-Con or genre festivals, so a first look could arrive in early 2026. Given the horror genre’s streaming demand and Flanagan’s reputation, the miniseries may be positioned for a late-2026 debut or early 2027 launch. Cast promotion will likely follow, with Flanagan and exec-producer Trevor Macy appearing in press around the rollout
