Love the idea of Elba playing Roland as well. These are some of my favourite books ever, and the story gets WEIRD, so I'm pretty excited to see where they take this adaptation. They've been talking about a Dark Tower adaptations for probably over 10 years now, so this is good news I'd say.
Any Stephen King/Dark Tower fans here?
Also, with all the uproar over the #OscarsSoWhite thing, its kind of neat that they cast Elba in the role before that was even brought up about the Oscars.Last edited by Joey; Tue Mar 1, 2016, 04:11 PM.

Sounds like they won't be starting with the Gunslinger directly. This article speculates The Wastelands, but The Drawing of the 3 (which has a lot of NYC) with flashbacks makes a lot more sense to me:

I think aiming for a movie series is definitely the most viable, but damn, a Dark Tower show, with production values of something like Game of Thrones would be AMAZING.
But ya, they've already changed some things around, and apparently they won't be sticking directly with the Story chronology, and with Roland being Black now, it will definitely add some interesting arcs to the story.
