9. The Dark Tower (Idris Elba)

MCU Actors 2017
Columbia Pictures

After at least a decade of trying, Stephen King's fantasy epic is finally being brought to life on the big screen. The movie, which will follow Idris Elba's Gunslinger on the path to find the dark tower, is expected to spawn an anthology of works, including a TV series and, if it's a hit, no doubt more films.

Matthew McConaughey will star opposite Elba as the Man in Black, while A Royal Affair helmer Nikolaj Arcel is directing the movie, which is said to be a sequel to the books, rather than a direct adaptation.

Release Date: 28 July
