Stephen King explains the failure of the movie adaptation of The Dark Tower
The failure of the movie "The Dark Tower" is explained by the rating and an attempt to fit the events of a whole cycle of works into one movie project. This explanation was given in an interview with Vulture by the author of the literary source Stephen King. "The main problem was that it was necessary to make a movie based on several books of 3000 pages. Besides, it was wrong to shoot a picture with a rating PG-13 for works of extreme cruelty. But, nevertheless, I have to say that writer Akiva Goldsman did a good job of introducing the viewer to the key moments of the plot of the books. Now he is going to shoot a television series. Let's see what happens ", - he commented. Recall that the story of the making of the movie "The Dark Tower" was very dramatic. The project was frozen several times, lost the leading actors and changed the concept. As a result, the picture was presented to viewers in early August 2017 and completely failed at the box office. With a production budget of $ 60 million, she grossed only $ 110 million.
