The UK DVD version of Kingdom Hospital is now out. You can pre-order it here.
There has also been some info released about the US DVD of Kingdom Hospital.
This is from the Stephenking.com message board:
Question: I heard on the radio in their entertainment that Mr.King and HBO are in talks to move K.H to HBO, any truth to that?
Response from Moderator: Not that I'm aware of. There is another project being discussed, though, and as soon as I get the green light, I'll post information about that.
I have no idea what the project might be but there has been some rumors that HBO is interested in The Dark Tower...
Thanks to Bob I.
