In addition to original works like Midnight Mass, Oculus, and Hush, Flanagan has spent much of his career adapting horror stories into Netflix miniseries: The Haunting of Hill House recreated the work of Shirley Jackson, before The Haunting of Bly Manor reimagined The Turn of the Screw by Henry James. “But in the future, nothing would make me happier.”
“Given the writers’ strike, there’s not much going on right now,” Flanagan said, referring to the ongoing Writers Guild of America strike that began on May 2. (Flanagan is a self-professed “huge fan” of Alan Wake and Control.) During a Q&A segment at the end of the panel, an audience member asked Flanagan if, given Lake’s habit of writing stories that cross over with one another, the two creators might want to collaborate at some point. They also spent a good amount of time gushing over each other’s work. The two hosted a panel this week at Tribeca Festival 2023, in which they spoke about Alan Wake 2, Remedy Entertainment’s oeuvre, and the influences that have shaped both of their projects throughout the years. It turns out, horror movie director Mike Flanagan would not be opposed to helping out. With the upcoming Alan Wake 2, creative director and writer Sam Lake is further expanding the shared universe of Remedy Entertainment’s video games.
