Vera Farmiga Heads For An Indie Western – The Up In The Air actress to shoot A Thousand Guns

16th April 2010 By Tim Isaac

I have to say I’m impressed with how Vera Farmiga is the using the status she now has following Up In The Air and her Oscar nomination, to segue into a host of different films that should help her star status and allow her to remain feeling like an artist.

She’s already shooting Duncan Jones’ follow-up to Moon, Source Code, has Henry’s Crime in post-production and is attached to play Wallis Simpson in Madonna’s W.E. Only last week it was announced she’s also turning director with Higher Ground, about a womam who gets involved with a radical New Testament church.

If all that weren’t enough, now Variety says that’s she signed up for the unusual, and slightly supernatural, indie western, A Thousand Guns. Although the Variety story doesn’t offer much info on the plot of the film, the production company’s website (via /Film), tell us a lot more. It says, ‘A Thousand Guns is a rogue western with an unusual set of rules. A demon gun called El Rojo sets the stage in a world where the dead command the living. Sabina (to be played by Farmiga), her Protestant Priest husband Benedikt, and their son, Claude, have left their German homeland for the promise of the New World. There, set against the endless backdrop of the west, they build a Protestant Mission.

‘Sabina, finds herself in desperate times, when their congregation is attacked by a ruthless band of marauding Stick Men, led by the psychotic outlaw Tiburon Vazquez,, who wields a demon gun called El Rojo! Sabina and Claude escape only to watch helplessly as Vasquez pulls El Rojo with its gold trigger and dark red ruby handle from his hip. The malice that drives him registers across his grinning face as he squeezes the trigger on El Rojo and murders Sabina’s husband.’ She then sets out for revenge.

It all sounds a bit weird, but could be pretty cool. Spanish director Daniel Calpasoro is set to helm, although there’s no news when it might go into production.
