The production of Jane Got a Gun, a Western led by?Natalie Portman, has been delayed several times.? It was finally scheduled to begin shooting next week, but a last-minute casting swap will push production back to April.? Michael Fassbender?was set to play the male lead, but his?X-Men: Days of Future Past?schedule creates a conflict that will pull him off the project.? Normally, that would be terrible news, but director?Lynne Ramsay (We Need to Talk About Kevin) has a mighty fine backup plan.? THR reports Joel Edgerton, who was looking to play the villain, will switch sides to assume Fassbender?s role.? Jude Law will come on board to play the villain and round out the lead cast.? If you can get two out of three with Fassbender, Edgerton, and Law, you win.
Scott Steindorff (The Lincoln Lawyer), Aleen Keshishian (Our Idiot Brother), and Terry Dougas (The Box) are producing.? The script by Brian Duffield follows good girl Jane (Portman), who runs away from her outlaw husband (Law) and teams up with on old flame (Edgerton) to protect her family.? Read the full synopsis for Jane Got a Gun after the break.
Here is the AFM synopsis:
Young and pretty with a soul of pure steel, Jane Hammond (Natalie Portman) is a good girl married to one of the worst baddies in town.? When her husband Bill (Jude Law) turns against his own gang, the vicious Bishop Boys, and returns home barely alive with eight bullets in his back, Jane knows it?s time to ditch the dress for a pair of pants and strap on her own gun.? As the relentless leader John Bishop gears up for revenge, Jane?s best hope for her family?s survival rests with her old love Dan Frost (Joel Edgerton) ? a gunslinger whose hatred for Bill is only slightly overshadowed by his love for Jane.? Together Jane and Dan spring clever traps, luring Bishop?s men to certain death just as their old feelings for each other resurface amidst the flying bullets.
With director Lynne Ramsay (WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT KEVIN, MORVERN CALLAR) at the helm, the rich dimensions of these characters find their best ally with Jane out in front, taking her fate into her own hands with the kind of bravado legends are made of.
