Actor Franco Nero is set to reprise his role as Django nearly 50 years after he originally portrayed the gunslinger on the big screen. The Die Hard 2 star first appeared as the character in Sergio Corbucci’s cult 1966 movie Django, and he returned in the film’s 1987 sequel Django Strikes Again.
The original film has spawned a series of movies, including Quentin Tarantino’s 2012 hit Django Unchained, which starred Jamie Foxx in the title role and featured Nero in a cameo as a slave trader.
The new film, Django Lives, will be set in 1915.
Nero will play a consultant to producers of silent movie westerns, who finds himself at odds with racketeers.
