Ron Howard, Akiva Goldsman with Universal Studios and NBC will create a FILM trilogy & TV Series out of King's DARK TOWER series

Hey folks, Harry here with news that is difficult to really process - given what Ron and crew are planning has never been done before. A movie trilogy that will also involve a television series that ties into the film and making use of the film's resources. All coming from the beloved Stephen King epic, DARK TOWER series. Not only that, but RON HOWARD is going to be in charge of something he hasn't been entirely successful with as a filmmaker to date. His fantasy experience is WILLOW and SPLASH. And his Westerns have been FAR & AWAY and THE MISSING. Now SPLASH is beloved, but the other 3 films - give hesitation when thinking about his DARK TOWER possibilities. Quint will be on later tonight to post a more indepth opinion piece, as he's the resident expert on all things DARK TOWER - and has been bringing you DARK TOWER news for the past 14 years.
