Ian McShane Says He Would Be On Board "Deadwood" Movie
by James Hibberd
6/3/16

No deals have been made for a "Deadwood" movie among the canceled Western’s cast, but star Ian McShane says he’s totally on board if HBO decides to pull the trigger.

Creator David Milch has been working on a script for HBO for the long-long-long awaited "Deadwood" movie, something the network has confirmed, but nothing has been greenlit.

McShane tells EW he’s ready to resurrect Al Swearengen, even with his starring role in Starz’ upcoming Neil Gaiman fantasy drama "American Gods".

“Of course I’d love to reprise that,” McShane says.

“How could one not, when it was snatched away rather unjustly by a combination of forces we’ll never know about – hubris or money or whatever. But Deadwood certainly finished too early. At the time, most of us working on the show were incredulous. It’s been announced by HBO so its not like I’m saying it. I know for a fact David is working on the script. It’s been 10 years since it finished.

Timothy Olyphant is now free from Justified. I’m hoping they’ll make the deal soon, for two or four hours, whatever they decide on. It was a very close knit group of actors on it. We got along very well. I’m sure David will decide to set it 10 years later, after the great fire or whatever happened in Deadwood. They haven’t done the deal yet. They were planning to do it late this year or early next year.”

"Deadwood" Revival Script "Has Been Delivered to HBO," Says Ian McShane

There’s been some movement on HBO’s long-gestating "Deadwood" revival, according to Al Swearengen himself.

Series creator David Milch’s “two-hour movie script has been delivered to HBO,” Ian McShane reveals to TVLine exclusively, before adding with a laugh, “If they don’t deliver, blame them.”

McShane, who has a starring role in Starz’ "American Gods" (premiering April 30), says he’s spoken to Milch “about some of” the script.

“I’ll be seeing him for lunch soon,” he continues. “We’d all love to do it… It would be nice to see all of the old gang again.”
