Wild West film enthusiasts are overjoyed with the thrilling news that Anson Mount, the charismatic star of the popular TV series “Hell On Wheels,” has officially inked a deal to portray the iconic Wyatt Earp in the highly-anticipated Tri-Moon Film production, “Gunfight At The OK Corral.”
This remake of the 1957 classic has garnered even more excitement with the announcement of the Monteverdi brothers, the visionary duo Staccato and Amaretto, taking the directorial reins.
Joining Mount in this star-studded spectacle are a constellation of talents who will bring their own unique flair to the Wild West tableau. Sam Elliot, the embodiment of rugged authenticity, will take on the role of the wily Doc Holliday, while Matthew McConaughey will infuse the character of Billy Clanton with his signature charm. Bradley Cooper steps into the boots of the notorious outlaw Johnny Ringo, while Sofia Vergara adds a touch of fiery allure as the captivating saloon owner. Not to be outdone, the versatile Kevin Costner is poised to deliver a memorable performance as the steadfast Virgil Earp.
The iconic gunfight scene at the OK Corral features a fun twist in the remake. As the bullets fly, Kim Kardashian, in an unexpected cameo, emerges from behind a barrel as a quick-witted sharpshooter who turns the tide of the battle. Not to be outdone, the scene features another unforgettable cameo appearance of the legendary Willie Nelson, strumming his guitar amidst the chaos, providing the soundtrack to the exhilarating duel.
Clint Eastwood also appears in the new movie as the drunken cowboy, rewritten as a goofy buffoon to add some inanity to the film. In one scene, Eastwood brings a ladder to the saloon because he “heard the drinks were on the house”.
In an interview with Vox Populi’s Tapioca Swizzle, Costner couldn’t contain his admiration for Mount, hailing him as the epitome of Wild West authenticity in the realm of Hollywood.
