Godless (Netflix) EP: Soderbergh, Frank; S: Dockery, O'Connell, Daniels

Netflix is prepping Godless, a limited period drama series from the Out of Sight duo of Steven Soderbergh and Scott Frank.

Written, directed and executive produced by Frank, Godless is a Western set in an 1800s New Mexico mining town. The project, which is currently casting, is set to film in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Soderbergh and Frank are executive producing alongside Casey Silver.

Frank earned an Oscar nomination for his feature adaptation of Elmore Leonard’s novel into the 1998 movie Out of Sight, which was directed by Soderbergh.

Soderbergh is executive producer/director of Cinemax’s The Knick, whose second season recently ended. He also is slated to direct Hillbilly Heist with Michael Shannon and Channing Tatum set as leads. It’s expected to start shooting in the fall. In addition, Soderbergh has movie Mosaic, starring Sharon Stone, set at HBO. Frank’s screenwriting credits include Minority Report, Get Shorty, The Wolverine and most recently A Walk Among The Tombstones, which he also directed.

Just started episode 1 and it's great. Noticed that all the episodes are over an hour each. Episode 1 is 70 minutes.

4 episodes in. Great show so far. Drags a bit in the long episodes, but the setting is awesome, the characters well developed and the acting is superb.

Yup this was pretty great.

Michelle Dockery topless was a nice bonus.

Wrapped this up today and I loved it except for the last 25 minutes of the final episode.

Spoiler:
Roy rides off into the pacific and leaves the money behind.
I like Scoot McNairy but his fucking character was useless. yet they try to bring some sort of redemption to him? Great, by doing that and Roy's ride-off -- they underminded the women holding the town back from the gunmen. They wrapped it up via the white knights. What a disservice.


That irked the shit out of me. Overall, Jeff Daniels was great and I liked the series.

Just finished it. I really enjoyed it. It's nice to have a western as a change of pace.

On paper I couldn't picture Jeff Daniels as the villain. I'm only 2 episodes in, but he's been a real highlight thus far.

Just finished the seventh episode last night. A pretty solid show overall. I've got to say Merrit Weaver was a stand out in the series. I find her a bit annoying sometimes but she really did a great job in the role. I have to say the final episode was pretty amazing even if you could see it coming. I would definitely watch more episodes if a second series was ordered.

Spoiler:
I know there was no way it would happen, but I really had hoped that Roy Good was going to pass through Deadwood and or a camp for Hell on Wheels during his ride west.

Really liking this show. Even though it's a limited series, couldn't there still be a second season?

I'm pretty sure that Big Little Lies with Reese Witherspoon & Nicole Kidman was also a limited series, but it turned out well, and they are doing a second season of that show.
