"The Life of Chuck" is a hauntingly beautiful and deeply human fantasy-drama directed and written by Mike Flanagan, based on the novella by Stephen King. Released in the United States in 2025, the film stars Tom Hiddleston as Charles "Chuck" Krantz, alongside a powerhouse ensemble including Chiwetel Ejiofor, Karen Gillan, Mark Hamill, Jacob Tremblay, and narrated by Nick Offerman. Told in reverse chronology, the film unfolds over three interconnected acts that trace Chuck's life backward from his mysterious death amid a collapsing world to a surreal dance on a rooftop and finally to his poignant childhood shaped by love, curiosity, and imagination. Screenings at 2 and 7 p.m. Part of the three-film fall TIFF Film Circuit Bancroft series.
