Dark Tower the movie?
Yeah, this is one of those that you hear about it maybe, possibly happening, then Universal pulls out, then they're back on board. Eventually they intend to make movies and a TV series and it's all linked together and actually very complicated sounding.
I'm one of those people who actually hopes like hell they never make these books into a film/show of any kind. For one thing, Clint Eastwood is way too old to play Roland, and he's really the best choice. But anyway, NOW apparently they've gone and offered the role to Javier Bardem. O_o Yes, really. It was like a rumor that it would either be him or Viggo Mortensen. Gotta say, if faced with that decision, I'd have rolled with Mortensen any time, but eh.
If this does make it to film, I really don't think I'll watch it.
