Michael Fassbender Exits Natalie Portman's 'Jane Got a Gun'
Michael Fassbender who was earlier reported to play the male lead in Jane Got a Gun has exited from the project, While Joel Edgerton who was to play the villain will now step into the hero role.
Sources tell Funrahi, that Jude Law (The doctor in the Sherlock Holmes series) has agreed to play as the villain.
Jane Got a Gun focuses on a woman whose outlaw husband returns home riddled with bullet wounds and barely alive. When her husband’s gang eventually tracks him down to finish the job, she is forced to reach out to an ex-lover and ask if he will help defend her farm.
Edgerton will now play the ex-lover while Law will be the leader of the gang that lays siege to the homestead.
All the sudden changes in roles come as a result of conflict of dates with Fassbender as he is sheduled for a shoot for his next X-Men: Days of Future Past in Montreal. Finally after a series of changes the movie will be begin shooting in April in New Mexico.
