Character Research

'(A Gunslinger)is a 20th century word, used in cinema or literature, referring to men in the American Old West who had gained a reputation as being dangerous with a gun' - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/gunslinger.

I plan to create my main protagonist as an aging gunslinger. I have looked into the idea of cowboys & gunslingers, from old western movies, from the 60's. The characters I have looked at include 'Rooster Cogburn' from 'True Grit' 1969 & 'Rooster Cogburn' 1975 as well as multiple characters portrayed by Clint Eastwood most of whom are credited as 'The Man With No Name'.
At the moment my dad is the most likely to play the main role in my movie, as he is the correct age for the role & looks good for the role.
