A few days ago we got the news that the ambitious adaptation of Stephen King's
"The Dark Tower" was finally green-lit by Universal, with Ron Howard directing and Javier Bardem in the lead role. It took a little budget trimming to get the deal done, but fans can finally rest easy. Today, further details started to surface. Producer Brian Grazer, in an MTV interview, stated that while he and Howard are still figuring out the particulars of developing the three movies, the TV series, which will fill in the gaps in between movies, will begin production in HBO's creative environment. This is very good news, because cable has always been a medium that allows virtually unrestricted levels of violence, sex and profanity. Although I have a feeling that over-the-top violence won't matter if the series fails to entertain, it's nice to know that they won't be cutting stuff out like they did with
"The Stand".
