It was revealed today that the Coen Brothers’ upcoming Netflix project, The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, has transformed from the intended mini-series to a full-length film.
The Ballad of Buster Scruggs is expected to be released on Netflix’s streaming service by the end of the year.
The project was originally going to be a Western anthology, which would feature six tales about the American frontier told through the voice of Joel and Ethan Coen.
Cinematographer Bruno Delbonnel (Inside Llewyn Davis, Darkest Hour) shot the film with the Arri Alexa camera, making The Ballad of Buster Scruggs the Coens’ first-ever digital photography production.
