Remake of Clint Eastwood’s classic A Fistful Of Dollars in the works | Entertainment and Arts Update

A Fistful of Dollars, directed by Sergio Leone and starring Clint Eastwood, is reportedly set to be remade as a classic film.

According to a report on Deadline, the project is still in its early stages and the original movie’s production company Jolly Film is involved.

The details of who will be writing the new movie and the start date and cast have not been announced yet.

A Fistful of Dollars is considered a pivotal film in the “spaghetti western” genre.

Eastwood and Leone collaborated on two sequels – For A Few Dollars More in 1965 and The Good The Bad And The Ugly in 1966.

A Fistful Of Dollars was released five years after Eastwood’s breakthrough as an actor on the western series Rawhide.

It follows the story of a mysterious gunfighter who manipulates two feuding families against each other.
