Stephen King: What Went Wrong With The Dark Tower Movie
2017's The Dark Tower failed to hit the mark in theaters, and a few factors contributed to why the movie went so wrong. One ofmany Stephen King adaptations in the past few years, The Dark Tower stars Idris Elba as the otherworldly gunslinger Roland Deschain, who originates from another realm known as Mid-World. When a kid from New York City named Jake Chambers (Tom Taylor) finds himself transported through a portal to Mid-World, he's along for the ride with Roland in his quest for revenge on The Man in Black (Matthew McConaughey). The villain, meanwhile, is determined to gain control of the mythical Dark Tower that rests at the heart of not just Roland's universe, but all universes.
