Willis will star as novelist Paul Sheldon, who is saved by his biggest fan, Annie Wilkes, played by Marvel. He becomes Annie’s captive and forces him to write a new novel. Misery has a set design by David Korins (Motown), lighting design by David Weiner (The Normal Heart), and sound design by Tony Award winner Darron West (Peter and the Starcatcher). Willis was recently seen in Sin City: A Dame To Kill For and will next be seen in Barry Levinson’s Rock the Kasbah.
