Just wondering. I've seen new versions of the books it and gunslinger at the stores bc of the movies. Now I know king gets a piece of sales from the books but does he make any money from the movies. I know if a song artist puts out a song that is a remix from a song from the 60s they have to pay a percentage to the original or risk lawsuit. I.e. vanilla ice song ice ice baby. It's stolen from the song urgent and he never got permission. Since the movie title is the same as the book would king own the rights and have to give permission and get paid royalties?
