That Dirty Black Bag is the brainchild of young Italian filmmaker Mauro Aragoni (responsible for the short work Sarena. A Tale From Nuraghes) who directed the movie alongside Brian OMalley (The Lodgers [+lee también:

) and wrote it in league with Silvia Ebreul, Marcello Izzo and Fabio Paladini (the screenwriters behind the series Il cacciatore). Photography comes courtesy of PJ Dillon (Game of Thrones). It’s a series interweaving epic storytelling and romanticism, and which explores the darker side of the Far West. It pays tribute to the classic spaghetti western genre, capturing its irony whilst also revolutionising and modernising its narrative style in order to fit with younger audiences.

The story revolves around the critical eight-day clash between Arthur McCoy, a sheriff with a difficult past played by Dominic Cooper, and Red Bill, a lone bounty hunter known for decapitating his victims and slipping their heads into a “dirty black bag” who’s brought to life by Douglas Booth.

“With its propulsive script and incredible ensemble cast, AMC+ is proud to partner with BRON and Palomar on this innovative reimagining of the classic Western,” said Courtney Thomasma, general manager for AMC+. “We’re also excited to bring AMC+ subscribers another thrilling, high-stakes adventure of love and bloodlust in the Old West, following the enduring popularity of our AMC original series Hell on Wheels and The Son.”

As enthused by the president of BRON Television David Davoli: “With their proven eye for innovative storytelling, and their commitment to supporting the growth of international television, AMC Networks is the ideal partner to be unveiling this genre-bending epic series with. We look forward to sharing this electrifying and daring new series with their subscribers in the U.S. and around the world.” Meanwhile, in the words of Nicola Serra, co-CEO of Palomar: “It was a real adventure and a challenge due to the complexities and difficulties of the last 2 years but thanks to a group of fantastic people we achieved our goal. And, frankly speaking, we really also had a lot of fun shooting this show. The AMC+ acquisition is for us a great confirmation of this journey and we couldn’t be prouder.”

Three seasons of That Dirty Black Bag have already been scheduled. Mediawan have secured the series’ French rights, while BRON Releasing and Palomar Mediawan are handling international sales.
