Tommy Lee Jones & Zachary Levi Face Off in Angel and the Badman Clip
The classic dust and grit of the American West is set to roar back to life in a fresh, cinematic package. Prepare for Angel and the Badman, an upcoming Western remake starring two titans of the genre: Tommy Lee Jones and Zachary Levi.
This is more than just a historical retelling; it’s a high-stakes drama about the life of outlaw Quirt Evans and the perilous adventures that follow. The story delves into the tension between the lawlessness of the frontier and the fragile ties of family, promising a compelling narrative steeped in grit and suspense.
The film centers on a pivotal moment: Quirt Evans survives a tense shootout and is found in the care of a rancher’s family. But peace is fleeting. As days pass, Evans’ outlaw past inevitably catches up to him, forcing him into a deadly confrontation with Marshall McClintock and an equally menacing gang determined to eliminate him.
A sneak peek of the film promises intense character interactions. An exclusive clip reveals the uneasy dynamic between the outlaws and the rancher’s family. We see the tense encounter between Quirt Evans and Marshall McClintock, where demands are issued and boundaries are violently tested, highlighting the volatile atmosphere that defines the era.
While the story echoes classic Western themes, the production brings a fresh energy. The film is set to feature a powerhouse cast, including Jones and Levi, alongside supporting talents such as Neal McDonough, Meg Fraser, Jean Louisa Kelly, and Barrett Ellis Luca, all contributing to a rich tapestry of frontier drama.
The cinematic pedigree is strong, building on previous adaptations of this story, including a memorable telling from 2009 on the Hallmark Channel. Now, the 1947 story by James Edward Grant is being brought into the modern age with a new directorial vision by Julio Quintana, based on a screenplay by Jaime Hernandez, Kevin M. Townsend, and Christopher Tuffin.
Angel and the Badman is scheduled for release in theaters on October 9, 2026. Fans can now pre-order tickets and get ready for an unforgettable journey across the unforgiving landscape of the frontier.
