Terence Hill, the cult star and cinema legend, is returning to the Wild West saddle! This news has thrilled his fans worldwide, especially as it comes just before his 84th birthday on March 29. In an interview with BILD, Terence declared, “I am ready for a new sunrise in the Wild West. I had promised my fans that I would still have some bullets in the colt.”
After 50 years since his iconic roles in “My Name is Nobody” and “The Right and Left Hand of the Devil,” Hill will be putting on his legendary cowboy outfit once again. His Wild West roles were immensely popular, with millions of cinema viewers celebrating his work. In fact, the success of series like “Yellowstone” and “1883” has led to a renewed interest in Westerns, which Terence Hill plans to capitalize on by bringing a fresh perspective and feel-good charm to the genre.
The new movie will have all the wild action, gunfights and jokes that fans have come to love and expect from the Italian-born Hill. According to the leading actor, the new material could already be implemented as early as this summer. The film plot is inspired by the historical figure of an Italian nun, Rosa Maria Segale, who became famous for her bravery among Indians and outlaws in the USA. Her beatification was initiated years ago.
The plot revolves around Trinity, who saves the Italian nun from three menacing cowboys, thus starting the story titled ‘Trinity the Nun and the Gun.’ Billy the Kid, the infamous gunslinger, is also a part of the plot, as Segale reportedly met him in her life. Terence Hill also revealed in the interview that he plans to direct the movie himself, following in the footsteps of his friend and director legend, Sergio Leone.
Leone, who passed away in 1989, was a close friend of Hill’s and a collaborator on his early movies. His legacy heavily inspired the spaghetti western genre and his influence is evident in Hill’s cinematic style. It’s remarkable to note that even at almost 84, Terence Hill still has the “wild west virus” in his blood and is ready to entertain audiences with his timeless charisma and iconic cowboy antics.
