But for rabid King and Dark Tower fans, the trailer also shows all of the bold choices that director Nikolaj Arcel made in this adaptation, the changes that could upset the applecart that would be a tradition telling of The Dark Tower.
This trailer shows off a LOT more action than was ever seen in The Gunslinger, the first book in what ended up being Stephen King’s seven-book series.
Roland (Idris Elba) and Jake (Tom Taylor) face creatures, hooded adversaries, and more physical threats than ever happened in the first book of the series, meaning that we might not even be heading to The Drawing of the Three if a sequel to this movie were to happen.
