Original: john wayne
John Wayne is back in the spotlight as outlets mark the 66th anniversary of his $12 million Western, a hugely expensive production that he directed and starred in himself and which proved a costly financial gamble at the time. Meanwhile, his classic 'Angel and the Badman' is drawing fresh comparisons after praise that it outshines Zachary Levi's planned 2026 remake.
Why now: Anniversary coverage of the film's release and buzz around a modern remake have renewed interest in John Wayne.
