Directed by Nikolaj Arcel, and starring Idris Elba as The Gunslinger, and Matthew McConaughey as The Man in Black, The Dark Tower has already had its release date pushed back from February to July, in order that more post-production work can take place.
The Dark Tower is a movie that has been beset by problems ever since the idea was first conceived.
The project has been in the works for a long time, and has moved house several times, too, finally making its home at Sony Pictures, where the movie has finally been made.
Even so, it does seem strange that we haven’t had so much as a teaser trailer released so far, and fans of King’s Dark Tower novels, who have been eager to see this work get made into a movie, are starting to get worried.
