Deadwood

rip

breathing, then xp

His inert portrayal of a dead Swearingen would probably still be pretty damn compelling.

Weekend With Swearengen

considering this latest round of hope started w/ garrett dillahunt i do hope they find some way to work him in again

swingen looked pretty nimble in john wick

swearengen didn't do much except sit at a desk and walk around and occasionally slap around/stab a flunky, i think mcshane can pull it off with ease.

it mcshane can do an episode or two of game of thrones he can easily put on a dusty suit and call a guy cocksucker

had the newspaperman already been busted for kiddie porn when Deadwood was shooting or did that come later?

jeezus you ppl have all the dirt

jeffrey jones got busted for kiddie porn well before deadwood

oh it was HIM! Yeah, long ago.

does who's yr caddy hold up?

The film had received negative reviews from critics. In particular, many critics have deemed this film a "terrible rip-off" of Caddyshack.[2][3][4][5] Overall it is ranked a "Rotten" rating of 6% on Rotten Tomatoes, with the consensus calling the film "unoriginal, unfunny, and just plain forgettable."[6] However, former U.S. president Bill Clinton "loves" the film.[7][8]

welp that helps explain the reunion talks

"He is working on an adaptation of Peter Matthiessen's novel Shadow Country, with Jeff Bridges attached to star as 19th century outlaw Edgar "Bloody" Watson."

this sounds promising

whaaaaaaat

good excuse for me to rewatch the series imo

Yeah, dude, it was announced a while back. We discussed it somewhere but apparently not this thread? But I think it's gonna be a movie or two on HBO, iirc.

he's doing it again https://twitter.com/WEarlBrown/status/758556004980289536

Milch needs the money

?

Yeah what happened here?

Last I heard Milch was doing some work on True Detective S3 (now starring Maherhsala Ali)

There was something said somewhere

http://variety.com/2017/tv/news/deadwood-movie-david-milch-hbo-1202507726/

I need to go back and rewatch the third season - I remember it being pretty incoherent (esp. at the end) but don't remember much in the way of details.

once again

“For now nothing seems set in stone, with rumors circulating that the film will explore the burning of the town in 1879, which destroyed much of its infrastructure. But with all the key players on board, including Ian McShane as saloon keeper Al Swearengen, [HBO series creator David] Milch has a good chance of appeasing fans—if his script”—which has evidently already been written—“maintains the visceral allure of the original series.”

If it happens, I wonder how much CG will be employed to make the actors look like they did 12 years earlier.

doesn't seem right to go any further with this w/out Boothe

I forgot about him. Boothe was excellent, but as long as Olyphant, McShane and the women are there I think it can be done.

I like Cy but he's not an essential character imo. No Jeffrey Jones either, I assume.

it all hinges on Milch though, really

just curious how they pivot from the series finale to where they start the film. show ended on a fuckin cliffhanger.

Production on the film is set to begin in October, Bloys said, and he's hoping for a premiere in spring 2019 on HBO. Deadwood creator David Milch is writing it, and Daniel Minahan, who helmed four episodes of the series, is attached to direct.

oliphant has aged but mcshane clearly does not age

lookin' good

would be tempted to think that Olyphant has barely worked since Justified because he's either a complete dick to work with or maybe he can only do one type of character - which he happens to be very good at tbf.

he's the male lead on a currently-running series where he's doing a super broad comedy thing (not well imho but other people are into it)

actually most of his post-Justified stuff has been in sitcoms AFAIR

oliphant has aged but mcshane clearly does not age

he looked older in American Gods than in that one photo

(also he looks significantly older than the baby-faced fluffy-mulleted 52-year-old of Lovejoy tbf)

as noted elsewhere, McShane is a year older than Keith Richards

McShane looks older but he's aging very well, he's sharper-looking than he was back in middle-aged the Lovejoy days.

Olyphant is 50! my understanding is he's a v chill and low-key guy.

his talk show / late-night appearances are reliably actually funny
