Cowboys & Aliens not do it for you? Well, we’ve got another Western on the way and this one is a bit truer to form. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid were supposedly killed during a standoff with the Bolivian army in 1908, but in Blackthorn, Cassidy (Sam Shepard) is back. Turns out he’s been laying low in a Bolivian village, but has grown restless and opts to return to the US. When a run-in with a young criminal (Eduardo Noriega) catches him off guard, Cassidy is forced to reassess his plans and come back, guns ablazing, for one final adventure.

Directed by Mateo Gil, Blackthorn is set to debut on September 2nd On Demand and hit theaters on October 7th. In honor of the fast-approaching release, the film’s trailer has hit the web and not only does it show off this iconic hero in all his glory, but some incredibly striking scenic shots and exhilarating horse riding.

Check it out for yourself in the Blackthorn trailer below.
