Steve Zahn? Steve freakin' Zahn? Let's see, Robert Duvall...Steve Zahn...Robert Duvall...Steve Zahn. Dammit. They might as well get Johnny Knoxville to play Woodrow.

Dude, that would be awesome! And..... instead of horses they could have a dodge charger! And a hot chick in a jeep! I would watch it then and only then.

I think they should stick with the Dead Man's Walk cast and leave David Arquette and Johnny Lee Miller as Gus and Woodrow. Arquette did alright and I thought a good job but Miller nailed the Tommy Lee Jones Woodrow. I think he'd be good again.

The casting of younger people in roles we are already used to thinking of as belonging to older actors is always problematic. I remember once reading an article about 20 years ago about how they were going to make a movie about Patton as a young officer in Mexico with Pershing and they were thinking of casting the young heartthrob Alec Baldwin as Patton.

Anyway, I started playing a little game of recasting favorite movies with the worst possible people.

For example, Bobcat Goldthwaite as Gus, Jason Alexander as Call and Bette Midler as Clara. Chris Rock as the Danny Glover character. Mel Brooks could direct that one. I'm sure there could be worse but they would definitely bust the mold.

I always pictured Sam Rockwell as a young Gus....
