Lindsey Beer to make directorial debut with new Pet Sematary film

May 17, 2021 by EJ Moreno

Following the footsteps of the great Mary Lambert before her, Lindsey Beer is tackling Stephen King’s iconic novel Pet Sematary. Deadline reports that Beer’s will direct a brand-new version of the story, which will debut exclusively on Paramount+.

Reports say the film will be a follow-up to 2019’s Pet Sematary but didn’t state anything more about the plot. Deadline explains that “even though early reports said this would be a prequel, sources now say the plot’s direction is still being figured out, and a prequel is not guaranteed at this time.”

Lindsey Beer is a budding name in Hollywood, coming in as a script doctor for this year’s Chaos Walking and penning the hit Netflix teen film Sierra Burgess Is a Loser. She was also in the writers’ room for this year’s box-office smash Godzilla vs Kong. Along with this new Pet Sematary project, Beer’s is also attached to Sony’s Silver Sable, a remake of the classic 80s film Short Circuit, and even a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie.

Beer has reportedly wanted to move to the director’s chair for a while and will use this as her launching point. She’s penned the latest script based upon an earlier draft by Jeff Buhler.
