Ron Howard: The Dark Tower is Coming Along

Ron Howard spoke Tuesday in an interview published to Crave’s /Film website about his adaptation of Stephen King’s The Dark Tower. In fact, Howard says that beyond his update, you won’t hear much about the project until it is really rolling.

The Dark Tower is something that we’re still working on. We’ve all taken a vow of silence about the progress, the headway, what we think our timetable is, because I don’t think I realized how much media interest there was in the title and how much excitement there was.

There have been several attempts to get The Dark Tower off the ground, including rumors of a three-movie set linked by a television project. 

That edge is what appeals to me, the complexities of those characters is what appeals to all of us. And I think Stephen King really respects that, with [regular screenwriting collaborator] Akiva Goldsman and myself, that that’s what we love about it, and that’s what we want to try to get to the screen.

We’ll see what happens.
