Barry Pepper (“Saving Private Ryan”, “The Green Mile”) has signed on to join the cast of the Coen Brothers’ remake of “True Grit” as “Lucky” Ned Pepper.<\/p>\n

The character was played Robert Duvall in the 1969 original. Pepper is joinging Matt Damon, Jeff Bridges, Josh Brolin and Hailee Steinfeld.<\/p>\n

Ethan and Joel Coen are directing from their own adapted script, and they’re also producing alongside Scott Rudin. Steven Spielberg is attached as executive producer.<\/p>\n

The original 1969 film, itself based on the 1968 novel of the same name by Charles Portis, is about a washed-up old former US Marshal hired by the daughter of a rancher to help her hunt down the former ranch hand who gunned down her father in cold blood. Helping the two is a young Texas Ranger, who wants the reward being offered for the murderer. <\/p>\n
