As Matthew McConaughey says in the film “death always wins,” or so we think. The film The Dark Tower has just released three new teasers for its anticipated debut. While these teasers take on much of the same footage of the official trailer for the movie, there are definitely some news pieces and nuances to take note of. Nikolaj Arcel’s long-awaited adaptation of Stephen King’s The Dark Tower series is set to hit theaters on August 4th and it appears that the studio is beginning to ramp up their marketing.
What you should be looking for in these teasers is the dialogue. It’s slightly different from the books. The book detail is greater and the amount of dialogue was shortened a little bit, probably because this is Hollywood and they only want the juiciest nuggets. For example:
The second teaser focuses on Idris Elba’s gunslinger, once again saying the line slightly modified from the books: “I do not aim with my hand; I aim with my eye. I do not shoot with my hand; I shoot with my mind. I do not kill with my gun; I kill with my heart.” In the books, the full Gunslinger’s Creed goes, “I don’t aim with my hand; he who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his father. I aim with my eye. I don’t shoot with my hand; he who shoots with his hand has forgotten the face of his father. I shoot with my mind. I don’t kill with my gun; he who kills with his gun has forgotten the face of his father. I kill with my heart.”
