As much as I'd like to see Franco Nero do another spaghetti western (he hasn't since he filmed that Last Pistolero short about 10 years ago). I've been hearing news about his desire to film this western for YEARS now (was it in early 2005 when Castellari told me about this? I don't remember). So I won't believe until I see production proof. I know the Italian film industry has all but dried up (so damn tragic I won't even begin to lament), but between Tarantino promising all these projects which never materialize and the false starts for this western, pardon me while my enthusiasm goes to find something else to go holy shit over.
Okay, I am NOT a Tarantino fan. He writes good dialog, but his films are not my thing. All I can say is if this does get made, I want one more Italian actor in the saddle: GIANNI "I am Your Pallbearer!" GARKO.
Personally I'm far more excited about Rob Zombie wanting to do a full on western because I know he could truly pay homage with something utterly insane and fresh (look at Rejects). And he'd get a better cast too.
