Idris Is The Dark Tower

.
It is officially official -- Idris Elba is going to star in the big-screen adaptation of Stephen King's The Dark Tower series. This was floated back in December and everyone (save racists) agreed it was a wonderful idea, and here we are. There's a pretty long chat with King and writer-director Nikolaj Arcel (he previously made the movie A Royal Affair) over at EW where they dive into all of it - what's taken so long, and where the focus will be (which is an important question given that there have been eight books in the Dark Tower series). Do take note of the fact that I'm actively avoiding mentioning who's playing the other main character in the series -- I am staying positive, dammit.
