20th Century Studios is at present working on a modern adaptation of “The Gunfighter“, following the footsteps of the iconic 1950 Western film. Academy Award-nominated screenwriter and producer Ethan Hawke has agreed to script and oversee the new take, initially brought to life by the esteemed actor Gregory Peck.
Currently, it’s undecided whether or not Hawke will join to direct the ongoing project that is now in its initial stages.
