It's been two years since Sony Pictures announced their interest inbringing Stephen King's 'The Dark Tower' into a movie adaptation. And finally, the long-awaited first trailer is here and it was a lot.
The trailer brings us an instant premise, opened with 11-year-old psychic boy Jake Chamber (Tom Taylor) discovering another dimension called Mid-World. Soon, Idris Elba's Roland Deschin the "Gunslinger" takes over the center stage as the duo departs on a quest to stop Walter Padick (Matthew McConaughey) the "Man in Black" from ruling over the world.
The movie has been mentioned to be not a typical adaptation, instead it is a new take based on a several book series.
Directed by Nikolaj Arcel, 'The Dark Tower' is set to premiere on August 4, 2017.
