Mike Flanagan says he's working closely with Stephen King on his Dark Tower adaptation: "I'm not gonna let him down"

Filmmaker Mike Flanagan has offered an update on his long-awaited TV adaptation of Stephen King's The Dark Tower, which was first announced at Amazon Prime back in 2022. And while Flanagan doesn't have a date or a timeline nailed down, he's assuring fans that he's hard at work on the series - and that he's answering directly to King himself.

"It's not that I've put it down. It's just that the thing is so big, it's like building an oil tanker," Flanagan tells Comicbook about The Dark Tower. "We've been moving it forward this whole time. It's just, that's how big it is. It's constantly in the works, and you better believe as often as you guys may want to ask about it, Stephen King is asking me about it more, and I'm not gonna let him down."
