So I've been doing some reading and have learned that JJ Abrams bought the rites of The Dark Tower series from Stephen King (for $19!) and is hoping
to start production of said series into film after he has finished this final season of Lost.
For those of you haven't read these FANTASTIC books, I should kick your ass
. Get in gear and read one of the best series of books EVER written.
For those of you who say "QQ I don't like Stephen King blah blah blah," this book is far from being anything like his other works. Yes, he still
likes to screw his main characters and such over (that's kinda one of the reasons I like him haha) but that is about all that is the same. Get to
reading. It also encompasses a lot of his other books. You'd have to read it to understand what that means.
So, after reading about how a movie might be in the works for this phenomenal series of books I got to thinking about the cast. I guess this is
generally a question for those who have read the books: Who do you think should play the main set of characters in the books (Roland Deschain, Eddie
Dean, Susannah Dean (aka Detta Walker, aka Mia), Jake Chambers, The Man in Black (who is also Randall Flagg from The Stand))? I just know that Roland
and The Man in Black better be freaking spot on! I just thought I would get some opinions from others who may have read the books.
