The Big Picture Arguably, one of the most versatile and charismatic actors in the industry is Nicolas Cage. Fresh off delivering a brilliant performance in director Benjamin Brewer’s Arcadian, Cage who possesses the sort of acting range many can only yearn for, has set yet another project in his sights, and its in a genre the Academy Award-winning actor is familiar with.
Cage's upcoming Western adventure is written and directed by filmmaker Brian Skiba , and sees Randall Batinkoff reunite with the Dead Man's Hand director as part of the cast. The rest of the cast includes Costas Mandylor, Scarlet Stallone , and Tzi Ma. The Gunslingers will follow a mad genius Ben and reformed gunslinger, Thomas Keller who are guided by spiritual leader Jericho as they strive for vindication in a rugged town called Redemption. Cute.
Experience with a particular skill breeds confidence, and with several of The Gunslingers cast and crew boasting relevant credits in Western-themed movies, it's looking good. “I’m thrilled to be a part of what I believe will go down as a classic Western,” said producer and Aarimax Films CEO Batinkoff. “Stephen, Heather, and Nick, deliver original and powerful performances, along with the rest of our stellar cast, that I can’t wait for audiences all over the world to enjoy.
More Western Action for Nicolas Cage Close The Gunslingers is currently in post-production, and the film is produced by Batinkoff, Laurie Love , and Skiba. Executive producers on the project include Sean O’Kelly and Marc Bikindou, together with Jad Ben Ammar, Michael Tadross Jr., David Wolkoff and Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, Alan B. Bursteen, Dawn Bursteen, and Barry Brooker and Stan Wertlieb. The Gunslingers will mark Cage's third venture into bringing the Western genre to life on screen.
"I don't recall any Westerns being offered to me. Any. I don't recall it at all. I really don't. I don't know. I think I would've looked at any Western very seriously. To me, it seemed like an easy match. People laugh when I say, "Grew up in California, and I live in Nevada.” But my point being, it wouldn't be such a leap as if someone was inviting me to portray medieval England.
