20 Horror Novel Adaptations to Watch if You Love Stephen King Movies. So as we patiently wait for the horror film to hit our screens, let’s take a look at what Efron himself had to say about working on Firestarter. Producer Dino De Laurentiis had already worked on Stephen King properties before: Firestarter in 1984 and Cat’s Eye in 1985. Firestarter (novel) Charlie McGee was born on March 24, 1975, in Harrison, Ohio, to Andrew 'Andy' McGee and Victoria 'Vicky' Tomlinson with her abilities due to her parents having participated in a mysterious government funded experiment during college. In the film, Efron’s Andy must race to protect his pyrokinetic daughter, Charlie McGee (Ryan Kiera Armstrong) from being captured by cruel government agents. Firestarter, Kings 1980 science fiction/horror novel, blends each of these thematic ingredients with one of his other hallmarks, something that crept into things like The Stand and eventually took prominence in The Dead Zone: A distrust of governmental authority figures. The film will mark several firsts in Efron’s career as he will be portraying the leading character of Andy McGee. May 2022 will see Efron return to the big screen in a thrilling adaptation of Stephen King’s iconic novel, Firestarter.
