Wild West news supplemental

As soon as I posted the previous entry writer, Mathew Mayo sent me these details:



Gunsmoke to ride again

CBS Films is developing a theatrical version of GUNSMOKE, and they've hired Gregory Poirier, screenwriter of NATIONAL TREASURE: BOOK OF SECRETS to write it:
The action-adventure will re-imagine Marshal Matt Dillon, the hero of the classic Western, for modern audiences. The story will be set in the same American West as the original but will feature a contemporary look and modern action twists. Poirier is said to be close to completing a first draft of the script.
