Wilmington DE, strange little place.
first and for most Alley of Tull should be played by Drew Barrymore.
They can make her up to look a little haggard and frompy. But Tough.

Id like to see Roland played by either Guy Peirce or Javier Bardem. Im not big on Russel crow. but he would be ...OK.

years ago Ron Howard would have made a perfect:: farmer Brown; of the red hair
The Ron Weasley from Hogwarts could do it; if he were older. Now I guess anyone
who looks like them will do. Maybe they can make him look 50ish

ROSEANN BARR could be a great Sylvia Pittston.

The Marshall of the horses, the Holster or what ever he was called.
Tommy lee Jones, BUT he migbht not want such a bit part
He might also make a good Eldred Jonas. they would make his hair gray
The marshalls sexy daughter could be played by Dakoda Fanning.
because she is now too old to play Susanna of Mejis.

Sheb the piano player ...hhhmmm... Kid Rock is not out of the question
he can actualy play piano

the man in black , well. thats a tough one . I have to go with
Huge Jackman (wolverine)n I believe he can play "evil"

Another good one for Sheb the piano player would be Jack Black.

wait , another good name for Sylvia Pittston would of course be Kathy Bates

now as for Jake I cant think of ANYONE, Im thinking it will have to
be a ne unknown 10ish year old kid , we never heard of

the mots inportant role in the whole series will be that of
THE NARRATOR

I think it MUST have a narrator in order for it to work.

you cant get away from it , the movies and TV will have to have a narrotor.

now first we will need to know "who" the narrator is .

It could be Mr King his self. That is a fine idea. if Mr King wants to do it and doesnt die
in the next 7 years or so.
Im guessing no Mr king would not want to do it. he might however record the sections
of the book that he actully is IN. like reading his own O'bit

His son Joe Hill could play a very convincing Stephen King fron 1977 and 1999.

If its not going to be King himself as narrator then maybe a character.

Blain or little Blain would be an idea , also Stuttering Bill the robot.
we can not confirm that either of the "Blains" is actualy dead(fried).Little Blain
could still be very much alive. Either one of them
could narrorate the whole story brecause they have access to information
about other universes. Stuttering Bill actually has Stephen King books
(or mayben that was Nigel) and he has paintings of the tower made by
Patrick Danville
Patrick could also be narrator He has all kinds of powers. Now the fact that
he doesnt have a tonge doesnt really matter. we could hear is real voice ...
by way of movie plot magic.

SOMEONE HAS TO NARRARATE, who do yuo want it to be

Mr King could also use the movies and TV for serious REVEALS
like say...how and when Rhea died (or didnt die)
how Stephen Deschain died (that maybe in the comics)
what Irene Tassenbaum did with her copy of Insomnia
AND wether she was pregnant at the end or not.

Frank muller - no more alas

Only other guy I reckon is George Guidall - he's made a pretty decent go of reading it.

Or the guy that done this
