The Blot’s never read the Cowboys & Aliens graphic novel, I’m nevertheless very excited for the upcoming live action movie adaptation if for no other reason than the film’s director and cast. The Cowboys & Aliens film is being directed by Jon Favreau and features a veritable who’s who of The Blot’s favorite actors, including Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford, Olivia Wilde, Sam Rockwell, Paul Dano, Keith Carradine and Walton Goggins. Cowboys & Aliens is shaping up to be the next big comic book based summer blockbuster!
Then again, it’s going to have some really stiff competition for that title next summer from a number of more “mainstream” comic book franchises. While Cowboys & Aliens is not scheduled for release until sometime during summer 2011, its very first trailer will be unveiled by Universal Studios tomorrow. So keep your eyes peeled on The Blot Says… tomorrow for the new Cowboys & Aliens trailer!
