Brad Pitt to star as Jesse James

BradPitt.jpgWell there’s three guys writing here and an extra one on the audio edition, and we all struggle with innuendo and cheap leching at sexy ladies, so I thought it about time that the ladies get some. See, I can’t stop!

Not only is Brad Pitt now reportedly single, but it looks like he’s returning to the days of long hair. Personally I think hair is over rated, shaved is the way to be, however each to their own. Why the long hair Mr Pitt? Well his production company Plan B Films is about to bring a book of Jesse James life to the big screen with Pitt in the lead role. How convenient!

Unfortunately all I can think about at the moment is Young Guns and Tombstone. However, from what I can understand is that the book is actually quite a rich telling of the western life and an evocative take on the story. Coming Soon say:

In the book, Hansen re-creates the real West with his imaginative telling of the life of the most famous outlaw of them all, Jesse James, and of his death at the hands of the upstart Robert Ford.

James, a charismatic, superstitious, and moody man, holds sway over a ragged gang who fear his temper and quick shooting. Robert Ford, a young gang member torn between worshipping Jesse and taking his place, guns him down in cold blood and lives out his days tormented by the killing.

What could be interesting is that Andrew Dominik is directing, he of Chopper fame. He won much accolade from that movie but then that was back in 2000, and the only activity since is this years The Demolished Man.
