Paramount Pictures is developing “Sergeant Rock” and “Outland” scribe Chad St. John’s action adventure spec script “The Further Adventures of Doc Holliday” reports Variety.
The “Pirates of the Caribbean”-esque history-based action adventure will follow the tuberculosis-ridden gunfighter who formed a strong friendship with Western lawman Wyatt Earp.
Val Kilmer memorably played him in 1993’s “Tombstone” and a year later Dennis Quaid starred as Holliday in Kevin Costner’s “Wyatt Earp”. Lorenzo di Bonaventura (“Transformers”) is onboard to produce.
