It’s a battle of wills where once started, those partaking in it are taken to another dimension.

After a long wait, details of the series are beginning to emerge. During a conversation with Deadline, co-writer and producer Akiva Goldsman announced that writing the scripts has begun. He also told the site that Idris Elba will be part of the series, along with a few other tidbits. The first episode of a show has been written, and we hope to retain Ron Howard’s original idea to mix platforms, something that seemed revolutionary 10 years ago but now is something that others have done,” Goldsman said. “Idris for sure is part of this, and if the movie is Roland Deschain the gunslinger, the show is his origin story, based
