If you're not familiar with this comic, “Cowboys and Aliens”, it's about an evil alien race that lanRAB in 1800s Arizona to enslave the Wild West population, but enRAB up having to fight both the bickering cowboys and Apaches. Think of it as "Independence Day" with cowboys and indians. Yeah it sounRAB crazy.... but could be fun.
This comic-to-movie adaptation was announced last year. Now it seems they've gotten around to casting the actors. One actor mentioned is Robert Downy Jr. who's negotiating for a role:
Robert Downey Jr. is in negotiations to star in DreamWorks/Universal's "Cowboys & Aliens," a pulpy mix of the sci-fi and Western genres that could serve as a potential 2010 tentpole.
The deal would be Downey's first since propelling Marvel Studios' "Iron Man" to $500 million-plus in worldwide loot (and growing). He next will be seen in the comedy "Tropic Thunder" from DreamWorks in August, followed by the drama "The Soloist" in November, a DreamWorks/Universal co-production.
Imagine Entertainment partners Brian Grazer and Ron Howard are producing. Platinum Studios chairman and CEO Scott Mitchell Rosenberg also will produce, along with DreamWorks mainstays Steven Spielberg, Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci. Ervin Rustemagic and Rich Marincic will co-produce.
