Is the movie just book 1? Multiple books?
And I learned King wrote the Shawshank Redemption..
The book and the movie are going to be very different. Without getting too deep into how it works, think of it like the movie being a parallel reality to the book. Similar characters and situations, but playing out differently. I don't think reading the books will be required at all, but I'd recommend because they're (generally) quite good. The prequel comics are also dope.
It's a smart choice to kinda shield them from book nerds (self included), tho it won't matter if the movie ends up sucking.
Do you know how much of the books this will parallel?

I've been reading the books, they are pretty good. Book one starts off slow, and is really just a set up for all thhe others but it's only like 250 pages. The movie was made assuming most didn't read the books, but its very interesting how the movie and books the together.

The first time I read 1 I too felt it was too slow. The second time I read it I saw it's majesty.
That review embargo though
Man I don't have a good feeling. lot of cause for concern between the short run time and apparently 3 separate entities having veto power. yeesh
Wow I didn't even know about the run time, only 95 minutes is crazy for as involved as something like this should be.
You would think at minimum it would be 120 minutes. Not looking good. Help us Lord Stephen King.....
lol i'd believe 95minutes if they were really going going to try and do book 1 but that's clearly not the case
reading The Dark Tower series really drives home the whole "Stephen King on cocaine was a totally different person" feeling.
