“Carrie”: Plots and Reimaginings
According to the official synopsis, the show is “a bold and timely retelling of the story of high school misfit Kelly White, who navigates a cloistered life with her overbearing mother,” according to Variety . The statement continued: “After the sudden and untimely death of her father, Carrie finds herself grappling with the unfamiliar environment of a public high school, a bullying scandal that devastates her community, and the emergence of mysterious telepathic powers.” Mike Flanagan sees the upcoming series as a modern take on the iconic story. Aiming to be an “honest” and “uplifting” showcase, the series raises questions about how young children’s mental health can be affected and how simple mistakes can perpetuate themselves on social media. “There’s no reason to follow in those footsteps and try to go that route. However, the world has changed a lot,” he said during a panel discussion on Saturday, July 25, 2026.
