The Gunfighter
The initial movie follows the tale of Jimmy Ringo, an old-timer with a questionable past as a deadly gunfighter and killer, who yearns to reconnect with his wife (Helen Westcott) and a son he wasn’t aware of, all while trying to break free from his infamous persona. The movie’s depiction of the Wild West’s lawlessness and the repercussions of violence contributed to its status as a genre staple, and having Hawke on board for the remake will certainly enhance the storyline.
