Viggo Mortensen was previously mentioned to star.

Javier Bardem was previously attached to co-star.

Screenwriters Akiva Goldsman and Jeff Pinkner reportedly started from scratch and disregarded all previous incarnations of the project, primarily basing their new script on the first book in the series to focus on the relationship between gunslinger Roland Deschains and his underling Jake Chambers.
