>Dillon will play Chris Adams, the role originated by Yul Brynner in the original 1960 film, who becomes the leader of seven gunslingers determined to protect a group of innocent villagers from a mercenary land baron hellbent on stealing their land. Stoic, steady under pressure, and with an unflinching gaze that does most of the talking for him, Chris has no patience for hypocrisy or cruelty and holds fast to a quiet moral code rooted in fairness and restraint.https://deadline.com/2026/02/matt-dillon-the-magnificent-seven-mgm-series-remake-1236735653/
y tho
Didn't they already fucking remake this?
>>218952194my first thought.
It's nice to see Matt Dillon still getting roles. Like when Josh Hartnett came back, that was nice too.
>>218952194That was a loose remake with a different set of characters. This is skewing closer to the original movie.
>>218953672The entire issue with adaptations/remakes where the director and producers say >yeah man, we're going back to our ROOTS, we're getting back to the source this time!is that even if they succeed they beg the question of 'why couldn't I just watch the original? Painting over someone else's work is like the least satisfying thing you can do as a creative
>>218951976>70 yo gunfighterLaughable.
>>218951976I'm holding out for real kino.
>>218956774They should remake it entirely with midgets
Tell me Hollywood isn't dead.
>>218956811Based.
>>218956774>The Wee Bunch
>>218953672Holy fucking dogshit, a Jap, a nigger, and an Indian. Let me guess, the Japanese cowboy uses a Samurai sword?>Well, we had to have a Japanese guy because of course, it's based on Kurosawa's epic, Seven Samurai . . ."Fucking BLOW ME, holy fucking dogshit. Oh, and Chris Pratt is in it, OF COURSE!!! He would be. No wonder I never heard of this until now, what a fucking load of dung.
>>218956774has anybody ever noticed that peter Dinklage just always plays Tyrion Lannister in every movie, including shit that came out before Game of Thrones? He just always plays the exact same character.
>>218957308It was funny when they got his rags off
>>218952194Yeah but this time it's a TV series, so we can sit through an entire season of lame made-up backstory that ends with one of the characters getting a letter from the village asking for help, and then a second season of them gathering maybe two members of the group together while the others do some completely unrelated shit and then it gets cancelled.Doesn't that make you want to see it, anon?
>>218957241>Let me guess, the Japanese cowboy uses a Samurai sword?You'd be completely incorrect about that. He was a chon, occasionally fought with knives.
Rest assured this is the sixth time we have remade Seven Samurai and we have become exceedingly efficent at it.
>>218951976I kept confusing this guy with Ethan Hawke, Josh Harnett, and a bunch of similar people in looks and career trajectory.
>>218951976Didn’t they just make a Magnificent Seven remake years ago?Why another one?
>>218963967>>218953672Because the remake had too much DEI that it flopped. Never go FULL DEI.Now they're new gimmick is casting all washed up actors and it seems kino to me. What's Brandon Lee been up to?
>>218964137his dad got beat up by Brad Pittu
>See Matt DillonSay "kino" out loud
