It’s been a lengthy road, but HBO has officially begun production on their Deadwood movie.

President of HBO Programming Casey Bloys announced that production had begun in Los Angeles on the movie, which is written by the creator of the TV series, David Milch, and directed by Daniel Minahan (Game of Thrones, House of Cards). Also revealed is who from the original cast is returning for the film and where the story picks back up.

We’ve been hearing about a possible Deadwood movie for a while now. It was reported back in 2015 that HBO was considering a follow-up to the western TV series, which ended its three-season run 12 years ago now in 2006. In early 2016 it sounded like HBO had given the greenlight to the movie, though apparently that was just a verbal commitment. Then, later in 2016, came word that series creator David Milch was working on the screenplay for the movie.

We got a brief update on the movie’s status last year, but for the most part things have been relatively quiet the past couple of years. But now business is really picking up. HBO’s president of programming Casey Bloys movie has officially confirmed that the Deadwood is on the way and will hopefully begin filming soon.

Earlier this year we found out that HBO had committed to making a Deadwood movie after those whispers that they were considering it made the rounds a year ago.

At the time series creator David Milch was working on another project, and the plan was that he would begin working on the Deadwood movie screenplay after he finished work on that project. All of this appears to be falling into place with word that Milch is in fact writing the script now.

Back in August it was reported that HBO was considering the possibility of making a movie to continue the story of their series Deadwood, which was canceled far too early almost a decade ago now back in May of 2006.

Now it appears that a Deadwood movie is in fact happening, believe it or not. In a recent chat with president of HBO programming Michael Lombardo, he said that he has given the go ahead to series creator David Milch to make the movie. Read the quotes and more below.

HBO has announced that they have ordered a second season of their brand new series, Luck.

The show, which officially premiered just this past Sunday, follows the behind-the-scenes happenings of the world of horse racing and gambling. It stars Dustin Hoffman (Kramer vs. Kramer, Rain Man) and Nick Nolte (The Prince of Tides, Warrior), and comes from Heat and Collateral director Michael Mann, as well as Deadwood creator and writer David Milch.
