I just read that the Coen Brothers have asked Matt Damon and Josh Brolin to star with Jeff Bridges in the remake of True Grit, the film. Evidently, Bridges is set to star as Rooster Cogburn, Damon would take the role of the Texas Ranger (played by Glen Campbell in the original) and Brolin--who's making quite a name for himself playing bad guys--would take the role of the murderer. Scott Rudin, who produced "No Country for Old Men" for the Coens is set to produce. The really wild thing is they are hoping to start production this Spring. Those boys move quickly.
More news on all this, and on the events for Spring, soon. The picture that accompanies this blog entry is of True Grit wine, btw.
