12 Images That Will Restore Your Faith In Upcoming Movies

Why We're Worried: Because attempts have been made since 2007 to adapt Stephen King's classic novel series to the big screen, and getting it right will be immensely challenging. Throw in a director fairly untested in the epic arena (A Royal Affair's Nikolaj Arcel) and you have the recipe for a potential disappointment.

Why This Image Rocks: It proves beyond all the doubt and controversy that Idris Elba is a pretty nifty fit as protagonist Roland Deschain aka The Gunslinger.

While this says nothing of whether or not the script or direction will work, at least fans can rest easy that the character looks bada** and faithful to the source material.
