UPDATE: Rumor Control: Photo From ‘Jonah Hex’ Adaptation?
I’m still trying to figure out whether we should be covering this or not, but either way it looks like a really cool adaptation. It was announced almost exactly a year ago that Warner Bros. Pictures would be adapting Jonah Hex, a character known for having the right side of his face disfigured and wearing a Confederate army uniform, who was a rough-and-tumble gunslinger and part-time bounty hunter whose adventures always ended in blood. No details were revealed other than it would be written and directed by Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor, then today something shocking hit the web – a picture of one of the stars in a production test photo. Who is starring you ask? Read on and find out.
UPDATE: STYD reports that this photo is a load of BS… only it has now been revealed that they’re wrong and this photo is 100% legit. Thomas Jane made it to try and get cast in the film by WB…

Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
