Now they have shared with us that Stephen King will be playing the role of a clergyman. Of course, Stephen King is no stranger to cameo roles and previously played a priest in Pet Sematary. Some of his other roles include appearances in Creepshow, The Stand, and Sons of Anarchy.

“Several years after his wife’s death, novelist Mike Noonan still suffers writer’s block. A dream inspires him to return to the couple’s summer retreat in western Maine, a lakeside house called Sara Laughs. Shortly after arriving, Noonan is caught in the middle of a custody battle involving the daughter of an attractive young widow and the child’s enormously wealthy grandfather. He also discovers that Sara Laughs is haunted and that his late wife, Joanna, still has something to tell him.”
