This is amazing news!
With a mini series they can follow the exact plot of the book in full detail, something that was impossible with the film back in 73. The only concern I have is who will be cast? These roles are so important to the fans that it would be a real tragedy not to get the right actors. I just can't think of anyone among todays crop of Hollywood actors that would fit what is needed. Also it needs to be filmed in Georgetown, that is a must.
What I would also like to see, although it will never happen, would be for Linda Blair to be given a part in the mini series. What do you guys think?
