Those hoping HBO would commit to their promise of at least one "Deadwood" TV movie to wrap up events in the series, well the bad news is it ain't going to happen.

Out doing promotions for "The Seeker", actor Ian McShane told Cinematical that "I just got a call on Friday from ... a dear friend of mine, who told me that they're packing up the ranch. They're dismantling the ranch and taking the stuff out. That ship is gonna sail. Bonsoir, Deadwood."

With the strike and his current schedule anyhow, McShane admits that late next year would be the earliest he could commit to any such project. He's also not happy - "You feel cheated? Imagine how I feel!. We all do. We all do... But everything has to come to an end, babe."
