The Dark Tower was originally scheduled to hit theaters early this year, and with stars like Matthew McConaughey and Idris Elba attached, and the use of King’s source material, the movie was positioned to be a potential early hit in 2017.
EW is reporting that Sony has moved The Dark Tower back one week and will now come out on August 4th of this year.
The question now remains whether or not this will in fact be the film’s final destination, or if another delay could occur.
Since that point however, the marketing campaign has still yet to really begin, and Sony has once again delayed the film.
