“I can’t really say much about Dark Tower, except there’s a lot going on and it’s pretty exciting. While schedules and conflicts, etc, made it impossible for me to be the director of this first movie installment, it’s looking very likely and fingers crossed, but I really can’t say much more about it than that. Stephen King is very excited about the script, I’ll say that, and Nikolaj Arcel our director is doing great work on that script and preparing. Do we have an absolute green light? Nope, not quite, but fingers crossed!”

Foradan a écrit :Ca me parait pourtant raisonnable de se demander comment va rendre la relation entre Detta et Roland, avec toute sa colère contre lui parce qu'il n'est qu'un cul blanc. Des arrangements de script peuvent être faits, mais ces deux là sont censés avoir un contact plein d'étincelles.

And finally, the article touches on earlier versions of this film, back from when Ron Howard was going to direct, Javier Bardem was going to star, and the film series would be accompanied by a companion television series. Although those plans fell through, King says that the success of the film series may very well revive that concept. In fact, they’re intentionally omitting the flashbacks to Roland’s younger days so that material can exist for a potential series:They’re still holding on to this idea that they can do a TV series, and they’ve got it pegged for that.Since the fourth book, Wizards and Glass, takes place almost entirely in the past, this isn’t such a crazy plan. There are many Young Roland adventures that can be told, enough to fill out a few seasons of TV.
