Is Stephen King Planning A Return To The World Of The Dark Tower? His Most Recent Comments Have Me Wondering


It was seven years ago this month that one of the worst Stephen King movies of all time arrived in theaters. Fans spent decades anticipating a proper adaptation of the epic The Dark Tower, but what was delivered following years of the project toiling in development hell was a generic PG-13 blockbuster that barely had any resemblance to its source material. It was a disastrous flop that most King fans want to forget, and anything that helps us in that effort is a good thing. This includes time, any and all news about Mike Flanagan’s developing adaptation… and perhaps King writing a brand new Mid-World story.

Nothing has been confirmed, but for this week’s edition of The King Beat, I figured that I would speculate on the idea based on recent comments from the author and his social media activity. Along with comments about Gary Dauberman’s Salem’s Lot from William Sadler and a new Recommendation Of The Week, it’s a stuffed column, so let’s dig in!
