Yes, this film (series) is a Sequel to the books. Roland will be starting out with the Horn of Eld - a sign that things have *changed*. And this is being described as Roland's final loop/quest for the Tower. All this means that things will be different this time, though probably mostly the same themes.

Well as long as they can handle it and not turn it into a mess i am on board

Actually, everything should be identical except the very last moments of the story... But that would require thinking in order to understand...

Stephen king once tweeted something like " the Paradox of Ka, it always ends where it began but explores new territory as it spins." Which I guess could also be paradoxical cause the end is suppose to be different.

I thought it was supposed to be this film with a follow-up tv series? Or have I been misinformed?

They're doing this film as a sequel (or the next "turn of the wheel" so to speak), and they're doing Wizard and Glass as the TV series as I understood it.

Nope, you're on the right track. It's just what joannatn said.
