Image Last August, it became known that Matthew McConaughey (Interstellar) had received an invitation to join the cast of Confrontation. As it became known to journalists The Wrap , at the moment the winner of the " Oscar " is considering the proposal of the creators of another film adaptation of Stephen King - " The Dark Tower ".

As with Confrontation , McConaughey is free to choose his own side in the story of the struggle between good and evil. Initially, the actor was asked to play the main character of the book series - Roland Descene , but during the negotiations McConaughey showed interest in the role of Man in Black . It is curious that the image of the same antagonist of the universe King of Horrors was offered to the actor by the creators of " Confrontation ".
