Steven King's "The Dark Tower" may be made into a movie by J.J. Abrams. Who plays Roland and his Ka-tet?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

1. Roland - Although King says that the character was based on Clint Eastwood's "Man with no name" character, I think Clint is probably too old to play the Gunslinger. The actor shouldn't be too young either, as Roland has had the weight of the world on his shoulders for a long time now. A couple of suggestions: Clive Owen, Russell Crowe, or Daniel Day-Lewis
2. Eddie Dean: Looking for someone street-wise, tough talking yet vulnerable: Mark Walhberg would be perfect I think. Or Robert Downey Jr. - as he has the experience as a junkie to draw from.
3. Susannah Dean/Detta Walker: Tough, determined, proud - yet able to transform into the murderous Detta at a moments notice: Angela Bassett gets my vote
4. Jake - tough one, because he often seems much older than he really is. Haley Joel Osmont may be getting a bit old to play this part, so I'm going to have to go with Freddie Highmoreof Willy Wonka fame
5. Oy: probably an animatronic thing or a CG animal.

Actually i went with Freddie Highmore, i think Haley would be too old at this point.
Ooh I like the Russell Crowe possibility too - hadn't thought of that one!
I was with you until the kid. I don't have a good solution to fill that role but I think Haley doesn't have enough...what's the word...presence?
I don't know...just wanted to throw in my two cents.
Very good answer. I especially like Robert Downey Jr. as Eddie Dean. The best I had come up with was Michael Imperioli.
