The original ‘The Magnificent Seven’ film starred silver screen icons Steve McQueen and Yul Brynner. And this very modern remake, directed by Antoine Fuqua, puts Denzel Washington, Chris Pratt, and Ethan Hawke into the Old West!
The studio describes the film as follows, “Director Antoine Fuqua brings his modern vision to a classic story in Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures’ and Columbia Pictures’ The Magnificent Seven. With the town of Rose Creek under the deadly control of industrialist Bartholomew Bogue (Peter Sarsgaard), the desperate townspeople employ protection from seven outlaws, bounty hunters, gamblers and hired guns – Sam Chisolm (Denzel Washington), Josh Farraday (Chris Pratt), Goodnight Robicheaux (Ethan Hawke), Jack Horne (Vincent D’Onofrio), Billy Rocks (Byung-Hun Lee), Vasquez (Manuel Garcia-Rulfo), and Red Harvest (Martin Sensmeier). As they prepare the town for the violent showdown that they know is coming, these seven mercenaries find themselves fighting for more than money.”
This remake looks fresh, exciting, and full of mad acting talent. ‘The Magnificent Seven’ hits theaters on September 23rd!
