American actor Nicolas Cage is set to play a buffalo hunter in a film adaptation of John Williams` novel `Butcher`s Crossing`. As per Variety, the upcoming movie is being helmed by Gabe Polsky, who has directed documentaries like `Red Army` and `Red Penguins`. Shooting for the film will begin in the US in October.
The movie is also a reunion of sorts, as Polsky was a producer on Cage`s 2009 movie `Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans`. The film is set in the 1870s and finds Cage playing Kansas buffalo hunter Miller, who takes on a young Harvard dropout seeking his destiny out West. The movie is based on the 1960 transcendentalist novel by Williams, which explores man`s relationship with the natural world and details a largely untold but significant chapter in American history.
