Roughly 13 years after HBO canceled the award-winning series, Deadwood finally gets the proper conclusion its creators, cast, and fans have long awaited in the form of a feature film, premiering on HBO on May 31. And while it wouldn’t be considered one of the best episodes of the series, this movie is nevertheless a fitting and moving farewell to Deadwood and its cast of verbose but rough-hewn, morally complex characters.
Set a decade after the events of the final episode, Deadwood: The Movie picks up in 1889 as South Dakota becomes the 40th state in the Union. A U.S. Senator has come to town to commemorate this momentous occasion … George Ambrose Hearst (played with sinister resolve by Gerald McRaney), the same rich and powerful villain who lorded over Deadwood in Season 3.
