The Dark Tower has largely ceded the spotlight to other Stephen King projects on the horizon, but it seems the proposed TV tie-in may be moving forward. Reports suggest Amazon has landed the rights to develop a Dark Tower series among its burgeoning slate.
The forces behind The Dark Tower didn’t let a few bad reviews keep them down; next announcing ex-Walking Dead boss Glen Mazzara as the TV arm’s showrunner. Mediocre box office isn’t slowing them down either, though there’s talk that the series might maintain its own universe, even building up spinoffs.
