The story is centered on a character known as The Gunslinger (Elba) who roams an Old West-like landscape in search of the dark tower – supposedly the nexus of all universes – in the hopes that reaching it will preserve his dying world. Along the way, he encounters a mystical villain known as The Man in Black (McConaughey).
Kim is expected to play Arra Champignon, a character known to be “kind” and who “wishes everyone well.” She possesses psychic abilities and seems to come from another world – perhaps another time all together.
An adaptation of The Dark Tower, the western-horror-fantasy series that King himself has described as his magnum opus, has been in the works for years, but false starts and pre-production issues seem to plague the project, which began at Universal, then moved to Warner Bros. before eventually settling at Sony where it finally found its footing. After co-financier Media Rights Capital came on board, it was announced that a complementary television series would accompany the feature franchise.
Kim, who is best known for her role as Dr. Helen Cho in Avengers: Age of Ultron, was also a regular on the Netflix series Marco Polo. She recently lent her voice to the Kristen Stewart-Nicholas Hoult sci-fi romance, Equals.
