Axelle Carolyn, one of the directors attached to Mike Flanagan's small-screen adaptation of Stephen King's 1974 novel Carrie, has teased the Prime Video show's "fantastic script" as part of a celebratory wrap post.

On September 24, Carolyn took to Instagram to share a photo of a Carrie clapperboard, where she explained they'd just finished shooting episode 4. "I had a blast, working with a cast and crew who made me feel so welcome," she captioned the image. "Eternally grateful to Mike Flanagan for trusting with me with another fantastic script –and what a joy to get to play in the world of Stephen King!"

Described as a "bold and timely reimagining of the story of misfit high-schooler Carrie White", the new take promises to explore how her zealot mother and cruel peers led to the emergence of her mysterious, dangerous powers – and a tragic event that shook the community of Chamberlain, Maine.
