Wednesday, May 21, 2014


 
 
Charlize Theron had to wear a wig for this movie as she had her head buzzed for Mad Max: Fury Road (2015). 
Seth MacFarlane wrote a novelization of this movie based on the screenplay, the first book in his career.  
One sign in the town in the movie reads "Windisch and Sons". This is an ode to Christopher Windisch, the film's construction coordinator, and his son, who was the labor foreman on the film's set construction crew.  
 
When speaking Apache , Seth MacFarlane's character says "Mi La Ku Nis, Mi La Ku Nis" and the subtitles say "fine, fine". Mila Kunis appears in Ted (2012) and voices of Meg on Family Guy (1999), both projects by McFarlane.   
The idea of the film was an inside joke by Seth MacFarlane, Alec Sulkin and Wellesley Wild. The three mentioned how the Wild West was always depicted to be dangerous and believed that there are too many ways to die in the setting.   
Liam Neeson agreed to play the role of Clinch Leatherwood on the condition that he do a broad Irish accent. Seth MacFarlane complied with the request.
 
Cameo
Christopher Lloyd:  Dr. Emmett Brown from the 'Back to the Future' trilogy (Back to the Future Part III (1990) was also set in the Old West).
