I'm presuming at least four features to do it adequately, which is one reason I think Jackson would be the best director choice, since he's succeeded with the three (LOTRs).If this thing is to ever see the light of day or dark of theatre, a good deal of story boarding needs to be done...this is the man's Magnum Opus and as such deserves meticulous preparation...otherwise those of us who are fans will simply savage it and it will die an unseemly cinematic death...
...no question that Jackson proved he could screen a worthy film adaptation of a much loved series....I'm presuming at least four features to do it adequately, which is one reason I think Jackson would be the best director choice, since he's succeeded with the three (LOTRs).
I've just found a prior thread, so will merge yours with that one.I just read where Sony has set a date for the first movie in the Dark Tower series for January 13, 2017. With the exception of the name of the Director (Nikolaj Arcel), is there any other news about this - say like who's in it? I did look around and couldn't see another thread.
So no cast and no script...seems a little premature to set a date for release then don't ya think?
I'm not sure who's attached (if anyone) to that role now. The last one I'd heard was Russell Crowe but I think that's gone by the wayside since so much time and different producers have come and gone since then.I'd be afraid to watch it and afraid not to watch it. Who is playing Roland?
Since watching Wayward Pines, Matt Dillon springs to mind. Just sayin'.I'm not sure who's attached (if anyone) to that role now. The last one I'd heard was Russell Crowe but I think that's gone by the wayside since so much time and different producers have come and gone since then.
