8/20/07 - Variety's Review by Todd McCarthy

8/7/09 - Preview of Yuma at Worst Previews (Some spoilers) - " In Conclusion: Most modern remakes will take the original script and dumb it down, chop it up and make a movie that will sell to the general public, but in the end, disappoint fans of the original. Yuma is one of those few exceptions that will be better than its predecessor. If you are fan of westerns then this is a must see. And, if you do not like westerns, but are simply looking for an entertaining action movie with a great story and good acting than Yuma will not disappoint." - Thanks, Ivani

1/17/07 - MTV: "Ben Foster played a winged mutant in the latest X-Men film, but in the currently filming "3:10 to Yuma," the 26-year-old actor will prove he's no angel as he plays an assassin out to rescue his outlaw posse leader, played by Russell Crowe. Christian Bale also stars in the film, which is directed by "Walk the Line" filmmaker James Mangold. A remake of the 1957 classic, "3:10 to Yuma" refers to the train a captured outlaw must board in secret — but with a handful of colorful killers on his trail, there's a good chance some old-fashioned shootouts are going to go down. "I play Charlie Prince, Russell Crowe's vice president who goes on a killing spree while trying to get his boss back," Foster grinned. "I'm vice president of being a bad man." The "3:10" train is due to arrive in theaters October 12. ..." - Thanks, Maria

Note from Russell on the film

12/8/06 - PRWeb: Governor Bill Richardson Announces "Green Filmmaking" Best Practices -- 3:10 to Yuma, a feature film shooting in Santa Fe and starring Russell Crowe, has also put green filmmaking into practice.

The production estimates that the food bank will have received thousands of meals by the time filming has ended. "3:10 to Yuma is very happy to be one of the first productions to participate in Governor Richardson's new Green Filmmaking Program. We are continually looking for additional ways to contribute to these efforts," said Location Manager, Mike Fantasia. Says EMA president, Debbie Levin, "We're very excited that New Mexico wants to step up and lead the way for green production." - Thanks, Steph

8/4/06 - Variety: By MICHAEL FLEMING -- Relativity Media is close to a deal to finance "3:10 to Yuma," with Russell Crowe starring and James Mangold directing. Cathy Konrad and Mangold are producing the pic, which Sony had put into turnaround (Daily Variety, June 22). Remake is aiming for a fall start. Crowe would play a desperado caught by a local sheriff determined to transport him to captivity; the villain's accomplices stage an ambush. Columbia adapted an Elmore Leonard short story to make the 1957 original pic, which starred Glenn Ford and Van Heflin. Stuart Beattie, Michael Brandt and Derek Haas wrote the script. Pic, Mangold and Konrad's follow-up to "Walk the Line," originally had Tom Cruise in its crosshairs. Crowe stepped up after falling out of Baz Luhrmann's next film. Ryan Kavanaugh's Relativity will pick up the project as a one-off and not as part of Gun Hill Road, a hedge fund-backed company that will sink $400 million to co-finance a slate of films at Sony. - Thanks, Marilyn

The Hollywood Reporter: Christian Bale is close to a deal to star opposite Russell Crowe in James Mangold's "3:10 to Yuma." Relativity Media is stepping in to finance the film, which has been without a home since Columbia Pictures put it into turnaround earlier this summer. - Thanks, Marilyn

IGN Film Force: Russell Crowe, whose schedule opened up when he parted ways with Baz Luhrmann's historical epic, is attached to star. Crowe previously saddled up for The Quick and the Dead. The Oscar winner's back-end gross, along with Yuma's genre, were cited as the reasons for the pic being put into turnaround

FishbowlLA: "...Sony has apparently let 3:10 to Yuma pass by. A remake of the 1957 Glenn Ford western, Yuma was all set to go with Jim Mangold (Walk the Line) directing a screenplay by Stuart Beattie (Collateral), and Tom Cruise attached as one of the leads, when the embattled star abruptly jumped off the picture last week. Russell Crowe, who had recently abandoned Baz Luhrman's Outback extravaganza and who had been pursuing Yuma for a year, immediately jumped on board. But he was just as quickly back in limbo when the studio suddenly got cold feet."
