Idris Elba's THE DARK TOWER Has Been Delayed From February 2017

Sony... You have forgotten the face of your father. The live-action adaptation of Stephen King's The Dark Tower, starring Idris Elba and Matthew McConaughey has been postponed until the Summer.

The Dark Tower trailer leaked early last month but was quickly pulled down. Many expected an official version to be released by Sony fairly soon, but here we are a month later with no new trailer. 

Today, we've learned the reason why.  Entertainment Weekly is reporting that the  Nikolaj Arcel-directed pic has been pushed from February 2017 to Summer 2017.  Is this move a sign that Sony believes they could have a hit on their hands? 

Not necessarily, as EW says the reason behind the shift is because post-production work won't be completed in time to meet the original schedule. 

There's no specific date for the new release but we'll keep you informed whenever Sony makes the move official.

I hope it's in August because there are too many movies in June and July.

@SimplyAz - haven't read the book but did you see the series? First time I liked James Franco outside of Something of the Planet of the Apes. Plus I fell in love with that blonde...Sadie wasn't it?

@connorblaze -

I only watched the first episode but didn't finish it, as I find James Franco a bit unlikeable sometimes.
Sadie was fantastic in the book so glad that translated well.
Will give it another go.
