They should cast Amy Adams as Bill's wife.

I'm certain that Muschetti got attached to the project to begin with to work with J. Chastain again but seriously Amy Adams is much better casting.

Honestly the decision to tell the children and adult stories as separate chapters makes the adult chapter superfluous. It only works if the flasback structure is there, but since we've already seen the children's stories, there is nothing interesting to the adult's version. The TV mini-series had the same problem.

The kids' stories in the movie was way different than the book, so there's no reason the same can't happen for the adults.

All the kids are coming back for new scenes in this, per the director, so we'll be seeing more of them, and it will make this adaptation a bit different from the miniseries.

Yeah, that too, it's hinted that it will flashback to the more mystical stuff like Chud/Turtle/etc. to tie into the final showdown.

Depending on how part 2 goes, I would love to see a fan edit where the 2 parts are stapled together more like the book.

The book really needs an 18 rated miniseries of 10 episodes.

Also I bet instead of bondage dungeons and plastic covered sofas, Amy Adams' house has, like, cat clocks and framed serenity prayers in the bathroom.

What I meant was that Bill ends up marrying a woman who looks a lot like Bev. So they should just cast Amy Adams as Chastain's doppelganger since both actresses look quite a bit alike.

Yeah, I know but it keeps haunting me. Amy far more resembles the actress that plays Young Bev.

The point I'm trying to make is that the only way to come out on top is to kick the Air Force in the nuts, beart it savagely with a weight and take a dump on it's face.

I’d love this, but only if Idris Elba voices The Turtle.

And the post-credits scene has The Turtle dismissing the Dark Tower film as some nonevent happening on some random world, while the adventures of Key World Idris and his ka-tet are kept far from the prying eyes of the Sony... I mean, Sombra corporation.

Just kidding, there’s no way to fix the Dark Tower film, just ignore King’s universe and focus on a tight sequel.

Edit: I don’t mean I wouldn’t love for the sequel to introduce the mind-bending, eldritch horror of the novel’s finale. Frankly, I don’t know where else to escalate it to after the first film. I just hope they keep whatever cosmic themes they introduce tied closely to the first film.

I know he's good looking irl, but Ransone can play this character perfectly. There is zero question about that, he's already done it multiple times.

Its not like it's hard to costume the guy in such a way that he looks appropriately nerdish.

With that casting there's a very high chance Eddie is going to get his dick out.

Ransone is very good at hyperactive neurotic twitchiness so I think it's great casting.
