UPDATE: Well, as you can see, these images have been deleted, which probably means someone didn't have permission to share them. We're gonna leave the post up as a means for preserving the comments below (and, yes, because creating dead links is a no-no), but for those of you just joining us: please believe us when we say the pics above were really cool.
UPDATE #2: Somewhat inexplicably, the posts are now back. Enjoy!
So, what are we looking at here? Emir Muller's a German actor who, if these pics are to be taken at face value, has a role in Amazon's currently-shooting adaptation of The Dark Tower. We're unfamiliar with Muller (and his IMDb page isn't very forthcoming), but it would appear - based on the hashtag he's employed underneath that second photo, that he'll be playing one of The Dark Tower's Big Coffin Hunters.
That, in and of itself, isn't much of a surprise - we've known the Big Coffin Hunters would factor into this version of The Dark Tower for some time - but it is really cool to see the attention to detail that's been brought to bear on Muller's costume. Check out that grip-less revolver in the top photo. Check out that jacket. Hell, while you're gawking, check out the storefronts erected in the background of that second image. I look at these pics and I think, "Yup, that's what a Dark Tower show's supposed to look like."
Nothing further to add at this time, but it's pretty cool to be excited about another Dark Tower adaptation, isn't it? If you'd asked me if that was even possible as recently as a year ago, I probably would've laughed in your face. But once again, here we are. God, we hope it doesn't suck. Stay tuned.
