Aaaaah The Dark Tower, that is-what we like about this universe since this summer, it’s crazy. Must also say that the ads multiply, history of saving the furniture, and that every new, it is just the beginning of a great journey.

We will not go back on the history complicated and the dismal fate reserved for this adaptation of the saga worship Stephen King but The Dark Tower surprised by his tenacity. While others would have thrown in the towel long ago in the face of such a painful delivery, the producers are good and want at all costs-their tv series, as was originally planned.

Now that we know that it is Amazon who will distribute it and that she could start filming this summer, we can lean on the main : how does it start ? What does it tell us ? And well, would you believe it, and we are sure that for you it is also a huge surprise that, according to the site, Syfy Wire, the series “should be much more faithful to the book than was the movie.”

Yes, it’s called a big scoop. Apparently, the film’s director, Nikolaj Arcel, would still be the case since he wrote the pilot episode and that he will oversee the whole of the series with showrunner Glen Mazzara. A director who can take the opportunity to directly show white paw :

“The series follows very closely the tomes of Magic and Crystal, and The Gunslinger. It was great to be even more in the possibility to directly take pieces of the book or create characters exactly as they are in the books. Which, as a fan, is very exciting, but in a different way.”

While it is cute all full, one has the impression that he discovers what it is an adaptation. And it is a little the case, it is necessary to recognize, especially after the movie. Anyway, what you should remember is that evidently everyone seems determined to wash out the affront that had been done the year past and to bring justice to the writings of the King. This does not, of course, can make us happy. But it remains wary still, we already have a time.
