Season two of Castle Rock is heading straight for Misery! Lizzy Kaplan will be bringing a creepy new take on Annie Wilkes, plus Tim Robbins is returning to the world of Stephen King for the first time since his iconic turn in Shawshank Redemption.
Lizzy Caplan will be introducing us to a younger Annie Wilkes, who is still connected to the world and trying to care for her daughter:
Lizzy Caplan says she loves Annie Wilkes. "I think she's a sweet baby." She adds that "Kathy Bates, no one can touch her." #CastleRock #NYCC

Tim Robbins, meanwhile, won’t be back as Andy DuFresne. This time he’ll be taking on the role of Pop Merrill, the owner of the The Emporium Galorium who was appeared in a story called Sun Dog and was referred to in Needful Things, and is the uncle of Ace Merrill, the guy who threatened the kids from Stand By Me with a switchblade.
