Michael Rooker And Sam Strike Star In Amazon’s “The Dark Tower” Series

Two years after Idris Elba starred as the gunslinger Roland Deschain in The Dark Tower, based on the novels by Stephen King, the story is getting a series adaptation from Amazon with Sam Strike (Leatherface) set to star as Roland. The series, which is currently filming, has added “Walking Dead” actor Michael Rooker to the cast.
