Laura Ramsey Pulls Your Trigger on NBC Pilot ‘The Sixth Gun’

Laura-Ramsey-Ass-Shot

Laura Ramsey is set to topline NBC’s “The Sixth Gun,” a Carlton Cuse-produced pilot based on the Oni Press graphic novel of the same name. The supernatural western follows a farmer’s daughter (Ramsey) who becomes the target of undead outlaws when she comes upon a mythical pistol with paranormal powers.

Deadline reports that Jeffrey Reiner (“Friday Night Lights”) will direct the pilot from a script by Ryan Condal, writer of MGM and Paramount Pictures’ upcoming epic Hercules, starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

Ramsey’s horror creds include Renny Harlin’s The Covenant, Jim Gillespie’s New Orleans-based frightener Venom and the 2005 horror-comedy Cruel World (starring Jaime Presley). She is best known, however, for her gruesomely tragic turn in 2008’s The Ruins and that Maxim layout hidden in your bathroom.

Michael Bay thrilled movie-going penises around the world this week when he announced that Megan Fox would star as the female lead in director Jonathan Liebesman’s reboot of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, set to go into production in April for a May 16, 2014 release.

Bay posted on his site:

TMNT: we are bringing Megan Fox back into the family!

Fox will play computer programmer and Turtle ally April O’Neil. The role reunites her with Bay, who famously fired her from Transformers: Dark of the Moon after she compared him to Hitler in the press. Bay has since revealed that the order came from producer Steven Spielberg, who was far more offended by the comment.

According to Variety, Fox beat out actresses Jane Levy, Anna Kendrick and Elizabeth Olsen for the part. Bay is producing TMNT through his Platinum Dunes shingle for Paramount Pictures.
