HBO announced that a Deadwood movie is coming out:

Milch wrote script.  No word on actors that I have heard.

Thanks for that link, LL.

I loved Deadwood and am very happy about this. It had been rumored forever, so it's nice to see it finally happen.

While there is no word on the actors, as you said, the article included this quote from the HBO exec:

"All of these people worked hard to get this together. It's been a logistics nightmare getting all the cast members' schedules together, but we are there. It is greenlit."

That leads me to believe that all of the cast members (or at least the most important ones) have signed on. Tremendous cast. Al Swearengen was one of the better TV villains of recent times, and Ian McShane was brilliant in the role.

Powers Boothe is doubtful to rerurn.

He's gonna have all kinds of lame excuses, too.

I finished the series last night, and I need this film. 

I need more Milchian Filthy Black Hills Shakespeare in my life.

[MU82]

You know, Lloyd, I think I'll have to power-watch the series a month or so before the movie comes out.

I'm so jealous you got to enjoy the show so recently. I've seen it ages ago and I'm thinking it's about time to rewatch it. Especially with the movie coming out.

I dunno about that. There were 3 seasons of 12 episodes each.

I have a new client matter on which I am working that has become a problem for me. 

The reference name for the client is "Woo."

Every time I see that name, my internal Swearingen voice reads it as "Fuckin' Woo," and then I hear Wu (correct spelling) saying back: "San Francisco Cocksucka"

I pray this stays inside my head.

"I just read the final draft.

Holy.

crap.

In the course of those two hours, my emotions ricocheted in every fucking direction: exhilaration to melancholy; hoots of joy to screams of despair. The Maestro has topped himself."
