By Adnan Tezer Nov 5, 2010, 20:23 GMT
Paramount's Coen Brothers remake of Henry Hathaway's 1969 western classic "True Grit" will open on Dec. 22 rather than its original release date of Christmas Day.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Paramount will release the film the Wednesday before Christmas in order to get a jump on the holiday weekend.
It will compete directly with Universal's comedy "Little Fockers" and Fox's adventure-comedy "Gulliver's Travels."
The cast includes Jeff Bridges, Matt Damon, Josh Brolin, Barry Pepper and Hailee Steinfeld.
The story follows Mattie Ross (Steinfeld), a fourteen year old girl, who seeks revenge on the man who killed her father. She enlists the help of an alcoholic U.S. Marshal Rooster Cogburn (Bridges).
John Wayne won an Oscar for best actor for his portrayal of Cogburn in the original.
