Earlier this year, it was reported that Natalie Portman was set to produce and star in the western flick “Jane’s Got a Gun”. Directed by Lynne Ramsay, the film would tell the story of a young woman a young woman whose outlaw husband stumbles home pumped full of bullets, so she must reach out to a former lover to help protect her homestead from the criminals who are on the way to finish off the husband. 

Now, reports are that Michael Fassbender (“Prometheus”, “X-Men: First Class”) is set to play Portman’s husband in the film. It’s still way to early to tell if this film will be any good, but casting two of the best young actors out there right now is a good start.
