HBO will release Deadwood The Movie in May to accompany the rampaging western series. After months of speculation, a longer trailer has given fans another teasing look at the anticipated movie.

The suspense for HBO’s soon to be released Deadwood movie has been simmering on low for years. The company took a while to decide on producing a movie to cap the series’ storylines. Now that the movie has a release date, the teasing trailer has anticipation levels at a fever pitch.

The initial trailer gave fans less than a minute look into the upcoming film. The opening quote about any man worth a good name understanding the value of being unreachable could refer to the longing fans felt in waiting for this movie. For the most loyal and patient fans, those fifty odd seconds were enough to validate the years of hope and optimism.

The premiere of Deadwood: The Movie is slated for May 31, 2019. HBO has released a longer trailer with much the same theme. Deadwood is a sanctified city and series. There is much at stake for HBO. If the trailer is any indication, the movie will live up to the series gripping drama.
