The Dark Tower pilot from showrunner Glen Mazzara will be shopped elsewhere after Amazon opted to pass. "Largely because of the challenges translating the material, Amazon opted to go with a pilot vs. straight-to-series on a big-scale, big-budget production like The Dark Tower," according to Deadline's Nellie Andreeva. "In the end, I hear Amazon executives felt like the pilot was not on the level of other large-scope elevated genre series the streamer has in production/pre-production like Wheel Of Time and The Lord Of the Rings."
