Idris Elba Is Front-Runner To Play 'Roland Deschain' In THE DARK TOWER

I guess I'm the bigot who will bite. So so the we can have Susan Surandon play Detta Walker.Cause I'm a bigot and not... You know what it's not worth it. I'm sure he'll be good he won't be as written I'll get over it.

As swag rains upon him...


He'd own the role. My favorite actor along with Tom Hardy. Elba is just amazing and severely underrated!

As long as he does his best Eastwood impersonation I'm all for it. Keen to hear who Eddie is and how they are going to do Jake with his age and the length of filming.

ckal, [frick] off.

You still haven't convinced me that this film will be made.

I only don't like this because it means thy Detta won't be able to call Roland a "honkey ma-fuh"

Here to hoping that they actually make the movie


Also McConaughey and Elba , tell me that wouldnt be cinematic gold

Glad they r making a movie of it!

What is wrong with creations remaining faithful to the creator's vision?

What's the necessity in requiring discussions on why creator's visions must be altered in order to be seen as "progressive" or to the point as something other than a "racist"?

Freedom in art should be the principal being defended. That means, black creators can expect black characters to be faithfully represented just as white creators can expect (without constant harassment) that their expressions will be represented faithfully. And if there's an exchange of ideas and alternate expressions, then so be it. On both sides of the aisle there will be people who want to see substitutionary depictions.

But repeating the same invalid reasons as to why the freest most productive society in the history of the world will never equate to a coherent argument for the obviously politically correct, opportunism that's being marched in and screamed as being ethical and just. It's the opposite.

If you have a black president, black attorney general, black CEOs disproportionate to a population's percentage while dominating athletics and the singing industry to a large degree, and where you can have black depictions of The Wizard of Oz, Annie, an Asgardian of traditionally Nordic depiction, Nick Fury, Perry White,et al, et al, et al...And yet still endure a Chadwick Bosman on the verge of becoming a megastar for the portrayal of the first black superhero, and all of his idiotic, opportunistic belly-aching, then folks, it's time to stop playing the game, take the ball, and find something else to do, because masochism can only be experienced so many times before a man looks like a liar.
