The Long Walk has been in some state of cinematic development since the 1980s, with several notable directors trying to get the film made before Lionsgate finally crossed the finish line. One of Stephen King's earliest stories (and eventually published under the pen name Richard Bachman), The Long Walk is a dystopian story about a group of young men who agree to take part in a challenge: walk as long as they can, with failure to continue swiftly met with a bullet to the head.
