Schoen, Schoen on the Range


File this one under "projects I forgot were happening whilst I was distracted by a global pandemic" -- last February I told you that our big Belgian boy Matthias Schoenaerts was going to star in a limited series remake of Django, the famed Western series that once upon a time starred the gorgeous Franco Nero. Well they went and made the damned thing! And we know have a trailer. It's not quite all as dark as that shot above but since Django peering out from under his hat is the iconic Django shot...

... I figured the compare-contrast was important. Anyway also in the series (as you'll see in the trailer) is Noomi Rapace playing the black-suited villain and good golly does she appear to be having fun. I don't immediately recognize any other actors, nor am I familiar with the creators of the series (they made the show Gomorrah though, if you're familiar) -- all's I can tell you is this is as of now set to air on Sky in the UK next year, Here's the trailer:



What do we think? I'm ride-or-die for Matty obviously.
