The one Dark Tower adaptation that has made it out into the world so far was the 2017 feature film, which didn’t go over well. The pilot episode of Mazzara’s show began with the words “The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed” appearing on a black screen.

I really do.“Īt least one element of Flanagan’s vision was shared by Glen Mazzara, who tried to get a Dark Tower TV series off the ground at Amazon a couple years ago. It would be my Everest to do that, but nothing would make me happier, and God I hope there’s a chance. It’s all of those things, it’s none of them. Is it a series? Is it a franchise of feature films? I don’t know. As long as it’s that, it’ll be fine, and there won’t be a dry in the house. It’s a story about a tiny group of people, all the odds in the whole world are against them, and they come together. It’s what it is, what it is is perfect, it’s just as exciting as all of those things and just as immersive.
To try to make it Star Wars or make it Lord of the Rings. The way not to do The Dark Tower is to try to turn it into something else. But otherwise the characters are who they are, the arc is what it is. It would just be a question of taking the more fantastic elements that might be harder to connect to, especially where it gets pretty meta at midpoint, and grounding it. We would build it out from there, in order, until the end. You’d hear the wind and we’d gradually fade up to this Lawrence of Arabia-esque landscape with a silhouette in the distance, just making his way across the hardpan.

No disrespect to the film or other people’s approaches with adaptation, but when I saw the movie it’s like, ‘They’re starting in this whole other place?’ The first (image in his adaptation), it would be a black screen and the words ‘The man in black fled across the desert and the gunslinger followed’ would come up in silence. What it would look like, it would look like the books. Back in 2020, he said, “ The Dark Tower is forever going to be the story I wish I could tell.” Just last month, he told us that he and his producing partner Trevor Macy are “going to keep pushing to try and make ( The Dark Tower) happen until someone stops them.” Now, during an interview with IGN, Flanagan shared more of what his vision for the adaptation would be.Īsked what a Mike Flanagan Dark Tower movie would look like, Flanagan said, “ Nothing would be a bigger honor or make me happier in my career than to be able to work on that. For years, genre filmmaker Mike Flanagan ( Gerald’s Game, Doctor Sleep, The Haunting of Hill House, etc.) has been saying that his dream project would be an epic adaptation of Stephen King’s The Dark Tower saga.
