Yee-haw! Grab your six-shooters, point 'em in the air and let 'er rip! Oh, but after you do that, get the hell out of the way, because eventually those slugs come back down.

White enthusiastically announced the film's pre-production efforts courtesy of a brief "thank you" video to supporters of the project via Twitter on Thursday.

Here's the official synopsis for THE OUTLAW JOHHNY BLACK, a film from the brothers who brought you BLACK DYNAMITE:

Hell bent on avenging the death of his father, Johnny Black vows to gun down Brett Clayton and becomes a wanted man in the process while posing as a preacher in a small mining town that’s been taken over by a notorious Land Baron.

THE OUTLAW JOHNNY BLACK is set to be directed by Scott Sanders, with White and Byron Minns writing the script. White will also star as Outlaw Johnny Black, and will be joined by both Kym Whitley and Byraon Minns, among others, for the rootin' tootin' Western action adventure.
