Hope briefly rekindled that this could be done justice...
Very hopeful for this! Was really disappointed with the direction the movie took, despite thinking the casting was fantastic.
Starting with young Roland and telling the story more chronologically seems a good plan too, I know Wizard & Glass is being talked about as the story they're starting with but you've got to assume they'll cover Roland's training and trials and set all that up first. Could be amazing (but might not be)!
The guy who played the nutso telepath in Night Flyers has been hired for young Roland.

Not a bad shout -- lots of anger to be tapped in there.
