Mel Gibson to Write and Direct ‘Wild Bunch’ Remake at Warner Bros. https://t.co/sti7t7XgG5
- Variety (@Variety) September 24, 2018

• In "things literally no one asked for", Warner Brothers has hired Mel Gibson to co-write and direct a remake of the The Wild Bunch.
• The 1969 Sam Peckinpah Western follows an aging group of outlaws looking for one last score.
• This is Gibson's first project since directing 2016's Hacksaw Ridge.
• There is no info about whether this will be a straight remake or a different story, or when it will shoot. Hopefully never?
• Speaking of things no one asked for, he is also trying to finance a film starring Mark Wahlberg. Dream team!
