The planned cowboy movie for Rockstar Games’ Red Dead Redemption apparently has tipped Brad Pitt for the lead role as John Marston.
The film star has been given ”first refusal” for the role. The movie will be an ‘epic but modern’ Western say sources. The best choice?
”This is an exciting project with a great character at the center of it,” says a source close to the project. ”The idea is to make this in the style of an epic Western movie but with a few modern touches. Brad is perfect for the role and he is being given first refusal.”
Who else could possibly fill the boots of John Marston, the outlaw renegade? Red Dead Redemption releases on Xbox 360 and PS3 setting sales charts on fire.
