Ed Harris serves as narrator for the docuseries premiering Aug. 21.
At the very start of the trailer for Wyatt Earp and the Cowboy War, premiering Aug. 21 on Netflix, we’re told: “Forget everything you know about Wild West history. The Gunfight at the O.K. Corral? It wasn’t the end of the story. It was just the beginning.”
And if this sounds a bit like familiar territory already covered in Westerns ranging from Hour of the Gun (1967) to Tombstone (1993), keep in mind: The Netflix production is a six-episode docuseries, with plenty of time to tell all kinds of stories behind the story.
Former C&I cover star Ed Harris (Appaloosa, HBO’s Westworld) serves as narrator for Wyatt Earp and the Cowboy War, which focuses on the legendary feud between the iconic Tombstone lawman and Ike Clanton, leader of the outlaw band known as the Cowboys. The docuseries will feature “vivid re-enactments” showcasing Tim Fellingham (Final Destination 5) as Wyatt Earp and Peter O’Meara (Peacemakers, Band of Brothers) as Clanton.
Here is the official Netflix trailer for Wyatt Earp and the Cowboy War.
