New ‘Deadwood’ Trailer & Poster Says “Welcome The F*ck Back”

Don’t worry, “Deadwood” fans. The new film, written by the series’ creator David Milch, is not going to file down the rough edges of the critically-acclaimed show. No, sir. As seen in the new trailer for the upcoming “Deadwood: The Movie,” the gang’s all here, with just as much conniving, killing, and cussing as you expect.

Despite the assurance that “Deadwood: The Movie” is just as raw and unfiltered as before, the trailer also does a great job of showing the returning cast while also presenting the driving force behind the plot of the film — the future.

“Deadwood: The Movie” follows all the same characters you know and love, played by Timothy Olyphant, Ian McShane, and more, but in a completely different setting than before. These folks have to deal with the changing times, as the Wild West prepares for modern times. And those modern times aren’t going to wait around for you. If you don’t want to evolve and adapt, you’re most likely going to die. And since this is “Deadwood,” you know that death is always on the table.

As mentioned, the film is written by Milch, who is the creative mind behind the original series, and is directed by Daniel Minahan, who also paid his dues on the HBO show back in the early-’00s.

HBO is set to premiere “Deadwood: The Movie” on May 31.

Here’s the synopsis, as well as the rather explicit poster:

In this original movie based on David Milch’s acclaimed, Emmy®-winning HBO series of the same name which debuted 15 years ago, the indelible characters of the show are reunited after a decade to celebrate South Dakota’s statehood. Former rivalries are reignited, alliances are tested and old wounds reopened as all are left to navigate the inevitable changes that modernity and time have wrought.
