just for informations a movie entitled “The Resurrection of El Puro” could be planned for this fall but always in discussion from the producer that doesn’t know if the location will be in Spain Almeria or if it will be filmed in New Mexico… Since that, I have no more informations to tell you… but that’s all I know … but for sure I’ll ask confirmation about the script if possible… but I don’t want to spoil…
This project has been discussed / in the works since 2013 … or rather not in the works.
It may have been possible 10 years ago, when many of the SW veterans were only in their mid 70s … but it seems very unlikely that at 87 years, Robert would be fit and well to make a movie ?
For even longer there has been talk of a sequel to ‘Keoma’, by Enzo G Castellari, which was to star and feature many veterans from the original Euro western period, including Franco Nero, Gianni Garko … George Hilton was to have been involved also, but alas as each year passes we lose more of these actors … It was a nice idea to make a tribute film to those who contributed so much to our beloved genre, but in reality there’s no commercial sense in it from a producers point of view … it’s just throwing money away for the sake of sentimentalism.
I say, get these guy’s movies released in great quality for all the generations to enjoy and for some to discover for the first time … that would be a more fitting and dignified tribute.
in 2013 the project has been given up due to Covid19 but it’s what he told me… since 1 month, at least I haven’t talked to him yet… but actually he’s writing his autobiography since january… he confirmed the movie here for Fall 2024. but nowadays he has many meetings and he has taken back his book from the editor who asked him more details about his autobiography… that’s all I can say.
Hello all I’m back these last months have been really busier and for example I have planned two meetings with Robert WOODS in July near his birthday we were singing happy birthday in chors it was really amazing and the second one on September 14Th because in July Robert had unsolved problems about his webcam and we didn’t see him and we tried to plan another recently where we had luck to see him and talked to him we were 8 fans online and me as usual animator. it was fun as usual and now I have created a quizz of 10 questions about Robert’s movies it’s very interesting to discover and test the knowledges from his fans … I love doing that it changes from Monotony
for his last news I can give you he re edits his book as his published suggested to him… If you want some audio clips from the last meeting I have recorded let me know. it’s very interesting to know… I’m sorry if I left temporarily the forum I had lot of works and also faced to serious problem in my family with my uncle who is the trouble
