Short description

Follow the 10-year reunion of the Deadwood camp to celebrate South Dakota's statehood. Former rivalries are reignited, alliances are tested and old wounds are reopened, as all are left to navigate the inevitable changes that modernity and time have wrought.

What's left behind the scenes

  • Many of the building sets on the original Deadwood filming location were rebuilt or even destroyed during subsequent filming of other projects, and the original blueprints were lost. Bullock’s house, in particular, was dismantled during the construction of sets for the filming of “Westworld” (2016-2022), so it had to be reconstructed. The film’s art director, Maria Rebman Kazo, was forced to carefully rewatch the original series in order to recreate everything exactly as it was there.
  • The character played by Kim Dickens wears the same gray hat that she wore in the original series. It only looks new because the material was changed (this was a common practice in the 19th century). The props department was unable to find a genuinely new hat for this character.
  • While filming with Daniel Minahan on this project, Molly Parker was also filming the series “Lost in Space” (2018-2021) in Canada, requiring her to travel to Los Angeles from there. She became so exhausted that she often lay down on the floor to rest between takes, still in costume.
  • After the original series concluded, screenwriter David Milch verbally agreed with Chris Albrecht, then Chairman and CEO of “HBO,” to create two “Deadwood” films, but Albrecht was soon arrested for assaulting his girlfriend. He was fired from “HBO,” and the films were never made. Had the agreement with Albrecht been in writing, the series finale would have appeared over a decade ago.
