Apple TV+ today shared the first trailer for its upcoming Stephen King thriller *Lisey's Story". Set to run for eight episodes and debut on June 4, this already looks like a must-watch.

The show is based on a Stephen King book that was adapted by the man himself and features some big names, not least Julianne Moore and Clive Owen.

Check the trailer out and you'll see why I'm so hyped.

Based on the best-selling novel by Stephen King, and adapted by the author himself, "Lisey's Story" is a deeply personal thriller that follows Lisey Landon (Academy Award winner Julianne Moore) two years after the death of her husband, famous novelist Scott Landon (Academy Award nominee Clive Owen). A series of unsettling events causes Lisey to face memories of her marriage to Scott that she has deliberately blocked out of her mind.

You will of course need an Apple TV+ subscription when Lisey's Story makes its debut on June 4, but you knew that already didn't you? I know one thing – this looks like the show to buy a fancy new TV for. Maybe it's time to check out our collection of the best TVs around right now!
