The Dark Tower TV series – set to film in 2017 for a 2018 release – is already eyeing a multi-season run, with Season 2 very much on the agenda, EW reports:
Just as Arcel’s movie was developed with a door open to other films, a second season of TV is also a possibility if all goes according to plan. Although they will have exhausted King’s original narrative by that point, they could then explore the stories of Marvel’s Dark Tower comics, primarily plotted by Robin Furth, King’s in-house historian for the saga and author of The Dark Tower: The Complete Concordance.
The comic book stories explore young Roland’s return to Gilead and the later Battle of Jericho Hill, where the fate of the gunslingers – and their world – is decided in brutal fashion.
In addition to the source material in the comics, King could also choose to offer them tips on where to take the story in a future season, since he has been presiding over the film project from afar, weighing in on scripts and story changes. Or, he may sit back and decide to let them run with it on their own.
The Dark Tower Cancelled or Renewed? Stay tuned as we monitor the status of The Dark Tower Season 2 renewal…
