Summary
- Young Guns 3
is still in the works, Lou Diamond Phillips reveals. - Lou Diamond Phillips teases “fantastic” script written by Emilio Estevez.
- Phillips cites the production company, Morgan Creek, as the main roadblock for the legacy sequel.
As a long-time fan of the Western genre and having grown up watching the “Young Guns” films, I’m both excited and disappointed by the recent updates on the third installment in the series. Lou Diamond Phillips’ latest comments about the project give us some hope that it may still happen, but the lack of progress is concerning.
The film “Young Guns” can be described as the western version of “The Breakfast Club,” filled with flair and humor. The main characters include Emilio Estevez as William H. Bonney (Billy the Kid), Kiefer Sutherland as Josiah Gordon “Doc” Scurlock, Charlie Sheen as Dick Brewer, Lou Diamond Phillips as Jose Chavez y Chavez, Dermot Mulroney as Dirty Steve Stephens, and Casey Siemaszko as Charley Bowdre. In today’s era of legacy sequels, it was inevitable that another escapade with the regulators would follow, which happened in 2021. However, updates on this project have been scarce since then. Recently, there has been some progress.
On Michael Rosenbaum’s “Inside of You” podcast, Lou Diamond Phillips was queried about the progress of the project for a potential third installment of “Young Guns.” In response, Phillips offered a tantalizing yet somewhat vague confirmation, expressing his openness to rejoining the series as Chavez y Chavez.
I’ve got some exciting news to share as a devoted fan! Not only have I given this idea serious consideration, but I’ve enthusiastically agreed to it. Here’s the deal: There have been whispers on the web about a potential Young Guns 3, and these rumors refuse to die down. Why, you ask? Well, Emilio has penned an incredible script in recent years – within the last couple! Adding this timeline places us at the age we are now, making the possibility all the more intriguing.
According to Phillips’ explanation, some deceased characters might make a comeback in “Young Guns II.” By the finish of the initial film, only Bonney, Chavez, and Scurlock survived without mortal injuries. In the 1990 sequel, Christian Slater’s character Arkansas Dave Rudabaugh, Alan Ruck’s Hendry William French, and Balthazar Getty’s Tom O’Folliard were introduced. However, this time around, Doc, portrayed by Sutherland, did not survive, nor did O’Folliard. The audience was informed that Arkansas Dave had been beheaded, and Chavez had died from his injuries before Doc’s demise. Phillips clarified which regulators could reappear and which would stay dead.
As a longtime fan of this particular series, I can’t help but be thrilled at the news that some of the deceased characters are coming back to life. Having followed their stories since the show’s inception, I feel like I’ve grown up with these characters, and the thought of seeing them again is truly exhilarating. The fact that John Fusco, who originally produced the series, is involved gives me confidence that this will be a high-quality production. And Emilio, as an accomplished director, is certain to bring these characters back to life in a way that stays true to their original selves. It’s a fantastic turn of events, and I can hardly wait to see how it all unfolds!
As a fan, I’d put it this way: In the original canon of the “Young Guns” films, the deaths in the first movie are set in stone. Therefore, neither Sheen nor Mulroney would appear in “Young Guns 3.” Sutherland’s character met his end in “Young Guns II,” so he wouldn’t be an option either. However, Estevez, Phillips, Slater, and Ruck are still up for grabs.
What’s Holding Young Guns 3 Back?
Phillips directly pointed to Morgan Creek as the source of the holdup in the sequel’s production. Yet, neither he nor “Young Guns” supporters understand why the project hasn’t received the go-ahead. )
Morgan Creek has temporarily halted the project. Emilio had progressed significantly, conducting location searches and creating storyboards. He was well on his way to starting production. However, I’m not clear on why Morgan Creek wants to take charge of the property, as they currently appear to be inactive, making this decision seem counterintuitive.
As someone who grew up in the golden age of cinematic storytelling, I can’t help but feel a deep sense of nostalgia whenever I come across references to classic films from the late 80s and early 90s. One such duo that instantly transports me back to those carefree times are “Young Guns” and “Beverly Hills Cop.”
