I can't tell if they dude on the left is 17 or 47.

Wait... the guy on the left is ROLAND? I assumed from the picture he was going to be the kid. Maybe Eddie, at the most.

I think the series starts with Wizards and Glass, when he was younger.

right!
He looks way too young and green to be roland (unless they're adapting the comics and not the books)

Jasper was great in Vikings so.... I guess it'll be interesting to see him in this?

I very weirdly found Jasper attractive in BlacKkKlansman I don't know why please don't hate me.
