Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT A Mark Wahlberg thriller from the early 2000s is a thinly veiled remake of a classic John Wayne Western from the 1960s. John Wayne starred in 80 Westerns throughout his career, which itself spanned half a century. Of course, he fronted plenty of other kinds of movies from dramas to war epics , but Westerns are where he left an indelible impression.
Director Henry Hathaway Release Date July 14, 1965 Writers William H. Wright , Allan Weiss , Harry Essex Cast John Wayne , Dean Martin , Martha Hyer , Michael Anderson Jr. , Earl Holliman , Jeremy Slate , James Gregory , Paul Fix Main Genre Western There was no shortage of Mark Wahlberg action movies during the 2000s, with the former singer regularly appearing in fare like Shooter or Max Payne.
Four Brothers is more of a remix of The Sons of Katie Elder than a full-blown remake, though the relationship between the siblings and the basic plot do mirror one another. Singleton's movie takes a traditional Western tale but rubs some 1970s-style grit on it too, feeling in parts like a thriller Clint Eastwood or Charles Bronson could have fronted in their heyday.
A sequel called Five Brothers was once rumored to be in development, but nearly 20 years on from the original, it appears it's not happening.
