Did anyone else catch this trailer? this looks like its going to be sick. I remember reading all 7 Dark Tower books years ago. Been looking forward to this being turned into a movie or series for years.
In the last book, the gunslinger gets to the tower and goes through the door, and everything cycles back to the first book. So essentially he has been a loop for years but everytime he goes through the door he carries something new along with him but only a sense of déjà vu.
This adapted is set afterthe books.
fuck Steven king and the tower be damned!
it took me years to get to the end of the series and I still go back and read them again trying to understand it again.
I always saw Roland as a middle-aged/slightly older Clint Eastwood. don’t know if anyone else will capture the true essence of the gunslinger!
I did too. but I guess thats because King never had any black protagonists in his books , as far as I know. But there’s nothing to stop Idris from pulling off this role. Im actually quite happy with the casting. even for McConaughey as The Man In Black
Its based on a seriesbof books stephen king wrote years ago.

But if you are interested Marvel has been adapting them into comics as well. Still ongoing i think. Look for Dark Tower: The Gunslinger Reborn. I believe it starts there
