If they nail the main cast, this will be awesome. The rest should fall into place pretty easily.

have Detta Walker in the series as she is portrayed in the book.


She hates white people. That shouldn’t be too hard for them to portray

Is Stephen King going to play himself in the later seasons?


They need to edit him out of the series. Not sure how they fix the ending. Please don't call King though.

Who should play the Gunslinger?
It will be a newcomer. They will not be able to commit a "name" for the 6-8 seasons that would be necessary to cover the material.

just MHO.

This will be great. Amazon will be hands off.
Betting they learned their lesson after ROP.
Hire better writers - directors. That means letting them have control.

Too pretty.

Roland is … weathered. He is described as "long, tall, and ugly" with "blue, bombadier's eyes."

I’ll watch it, but the series really doesn’t lend itself to film. So much internal dialogue and flashbacks and split personalities etc

Did King ever re-do the absolute dogshit ending to the Gunslinger story?.. Knew a guy who dedicated years of his life to this story only to be fuming mad at the original ending.
