Young Guns 3

Apparently this is legit. There's even an IMDb page.

Sounds like Estevez is pulling a middle-aged Burt Reynolds - gathering up his buddies for another mindless but fun project, only this one involves guns and horses instead of race cars.

Young Guns 3! Emilio Estevez and the Gang are Back in Another Blaze of Glory

Young Guns 3’ is saddling up with original stars Emilio Estevez, Kiefer Sutherland and others. That’s according to John Fusco, who wrote the first 2 instalments.

Fusco tweeted the news on Jan 15th. For those having trouble picturing what a 21st century Young Guns would look like, he’s posted a Spaghetti Western style concept poster with the title ‘Guns III – Alias: Billy The Kid’.

The word ‘Young’ is obscured by bullet holes, showing a lot of water has passed under the bridge since audiences last met these characters.

Accompanied by the tagline “Some legends never die”, the image heralds in Fusco’s words “the continuation of the Billy the Kid saga”. He adds, “and you’re going to love where it goes”. As for where that is, commentators are naturally assuming the action will pick up during (real name) Henry McCarty’s later years.

Not that McCarty had any later years. In real life he died, shot down in 1881 aged just 21. Principal players Estevez, Sutherland (“Doc” Scurlock) and Lou Diamond Phillips (José Coby Frey Chavez y Chavez) are into their fifties. However the movies indicated the Western legend was very much alive, chiming with a long-held belief that he faked his demise.

Website JoBlo notes Fusco name checks some actors, “even stars whose characters died in the first two”. Alongside those previously mentioned are Christian Slater, who appeared in Part 2 as “Arkansas” Rudabaugh.

There are new faces in the frame also. Fusco tags Guardian of the Galaxy Chris Pratt, plus character actor Vincent D’Onofrio, himself no stranger to franchises via ‘Men In Black’ and ‘Jurassic World’ (where he performed with Pratt). JoBlo highlights the pair’s involvement in the 2016 ‘Magnificent Seven’ remake, speculating a crossover could be on the blood-spattered cards.

Lou Diamond Phillips has acknowledged the news on his Twitter account. Movieweb writes this is “seemingly confirming his involvement”.

Fusco takes a trip down memory lane with 2 additional images posted on Twitter. One from the making of ‘Young Guns II’ and another with Estevez standing in front of what looks like the Kid’s grave.

Easily dismissed by some as The Brat Pack Meets The Wild West, ‘Young Guns’ (1988) was a serious attempt to tell the story of Billy The Kid. The movie follows the burgeoning gunslinger as he fought during the Lincoln County War.

The film proved a hit, making over $45 million. ‘Young Guns II’ arrived in 1990. Future stars Viggo Mortensen and Bradley Whitford were among the supporting cast. In the sequel, Estevez played the roles of both Billy and Brushy Bill Roberts. Roberts was a true life figure who told people he was the Kid in 1950.

The plot featured Billy and gang The Regulators. Musician Warren G is also included in Fusco’s tweet – he referred to ‘Young Guns’ in 1994 track ‘Regulate’ with Nate Dogg. The outlaw’s legacy clearly struck a chord… his Twitter handle is @regulator. Will he be contributing to the soundtrack?

Jon Bon Jovi cameoed in ‘Young Guns II’ and wrote the hit song ‘Blaze of Glory’. Estevez reportedly wanted Bon Jovi’s ‘Wanted Dead Or Alive’ but instead got a whole new track for the movie.

The posse have since gone their separate ways and onto other things. Estevez is a noted director as well as actor. Sutherland continues making movies and achieved major small screen fame as Jack Bauer in ‘24’. Diamond Phillips is currently starring in hit TV drama ‘Prodigal Son’ and released a sci-fi novel last year to some acclaim.

As well as writing ‘Young Guns’, John Fusco provided screenplays for adventure film ‘Hidalgo’ (with Mortensen) and Netflix’s ‘The Highwaymen’ with Kevin Costner and Woody Harrelson.

This unexpected trip back in time combines late 20th century nostalgia with the down and dirty setting of the Old West. Are audiences ready for the further adventures of some Not-So-Young Guns? Fusco and Estevez certainly hope so as they dust off their stetsons…

Billy the Kid died at 21.

Estevez current age is 59.

But I guess they implied in part II he faked his death and lived a lot older.

Sure, I’m down.

I assume they're still riding the premise that Brushy Bill Roberts was Billy the Kid. There's just no way in hell that's possible. The facial structure doesn't match up.

But what the hell. Could be entertaining.

I've been meaning to watch the first 2. Time to do it I suppose.

Not much hope this 3rd film will live up to the first 2, but hopefully it'll at least be fun.

Looks pretty good for 59. He's certainly in better shape than his brother.

One of my favorite movies from the 90's (I didn't see them until the 90's anyway) and will go out of my way to catch this and hope for the best.

I've seen a couple pictures and read some first hand accounts of Charlie Sheen that he was a mess. One picture I saw looked like he just got liberated from Dachau.

Something tells me the stunt doubles are going to be busy during the filming.
