  • Mike Flanagan's Dark Tower adaption needs to include the history of this fantasy world, including the Great Old Ones.

The article discusses Mike Flanagan's upcoming adaptation of Stephen King's "The Dark Tower" series, highlighting the potential inclusion of the Great Old Ones, ancient and powerful entities from King's universe. Flanagan, known for his work on horror series like "The Haunting of Hill House," has expressed interest in incorporating these cosmic beings into his adaptation, which could add a significant layer of depth and terror to the narrative. The Great Old Ones, often linked to themes of cosmic horror, could serve as a bridge between "The Dark Tower" and other King works, enhancing the interconnected nature of King's multiverse. The article speculates on how Flanagan might integrate these elements, suggesting that their presence could elevate the series by exploring themes of ancient evil, destiny, and the battle between light and darkness, potentially making this adaptation a standout in King's screen adaptations.
