An adaptation of Stephen King’s 2006 novel of the same name, Lisey’s Story is described as a “deeply personal thriller” that follows the title character (Moore) two years after the death of her husband. Throughout the eight-episode drama, a series of events causes Lisey to face certain realities about her husband that she had repressed and forgotten.
Owen will co-star as Scott Landon, Lisey’s aforementioned spouse.
In addition to writing all eight episodes of Lisey’s Story, King will executive-produce alongside Moore, J.J. Abrams and Ben Stephenson. Apple TV+ will launch on Friday, Nov. 1, though there’s currently no word on when Lisey’s Story will drop.
Though he is best known for his film work (including an Oscar-nominated turn in the 2004 flick Closer), Owen starred for two seasons in Cinemax’s The Knick, where he played Dr. John Thackery. The role earned him a Golden Globe nomination in 2015.
