The other day producer Bryan Glazer said that budget cuts ensured that a Dark Tower adaptation "is gonna happen". Even though the planned movie versions of Steven King's saga are still without a studio behind them after Universal bailed out, it seems that the TV segments of the unprecedented multi-platform project have found a home at HBO. Producer Bryan Glazer revealed the following to MTV..

This should make Gunslinger fans very happy indeed. HBO have been the standard bearers for high quality, adult TV shows for many years now and have recently produced their first, very successful, Fantasy series in Game Of Thrones. I for one am delighted that they have chosen to follow that up with The Dark Tower. Of course without the movies it is unclear if the show will still happen so lets hope a studio grows a pair and gets behind this ambitious project soon. Updates as we have em.
