Lisey’s Story was inspired by King’s own experience when he was involved in a serious accident in June 1999. The idea for the novel sprang from a sudden realization he had when he came home from the hospital and saw that all of his belongings are in boxes. Because of that, he saw a vision of what his studio would look like after his death.
Fast and Furious fans will remember Kang for his performance as Han, the ill-fated street racer who met his demise at the hands of Jason Statham’s Deckard Shaw. The actor has also appeared in the TV series Hawaii Five-O, Magnum P.I., and Whiskey Cavlier.
