Back in Time

That cutie-patootie filmmaker known as J.J. Abrams wants to get in on some Stephen King action.

And I want to get into some Abrams action.

The Star Trek Into Darkness helmer is looking to serve as executive producer on a made-for-TV adaptation of the best-selling author’s time-travel novel 11/22/63.

Following the travails of a teacher who journeys back in time to try and prevent the JFK assassination, the book actually has the protagonist travel back to five years before the actual event, so a TV adaptation could very well work

And if anybody can make sure of it, that would be Abrams.
