'The Dark Tower' rises: Stephen King confirms stars Idris Elba and Matthew McConaughey
It's finally been confirmed! The Dark Tower movie starts shooting in 7 weeks!! A lot of people are unhappy with the choice for Roland, and there has been some upset over the casting for 'Triana' who no one has even heard of (I've read and listened to the books quite a few times, and I couldn't figure out who she was for the life of me!). However, I'm willing to keep an open mind to see how things play out. I have been waiting for this since I finished reading the series way back in the day....
Anyone else looking forward to it? Have doubts?
Personally, I think Matthew McConanughey would make a perfect Man in Black. I'm not too sure about Idris Elba as Roland though. Not because of the obvious race factor, but because I've never really seen him act in anything but the Thor movies.
I still have my heart set on Aaron Paul as Eddie though. Just waiting for the announcement. >_>
