After a few delays, the first trailer for the film adaptation of Stephen King’s popular series, The Dark Tower, is here. In the film, we will get to see Idris Elba and Matthew McConaughey square off as the Gunslinger and the Man in Black respectively where the fate of the world is in the balance as it always is. While I haven’t read any of the books, this definitely looks to be an action-packed epic, spanning multiple worlds. My main problem with this was that I’m sold on Idris Elba as the Gunslinger, I have a hard time seeing Matthew McConaughey as the Man in Black because his accent just doesn’t fit right for me. This could change or maybe his performance will transcend it as he has done on multiple occasions recently. We don’t have to wait very long as The Dark Tower releases August 4th, 2017.
