4. Jonah Hex | June 18th 2010, Director: Jimmy Hayward
Hollywood is giving birth to its second bounty hunter this spring and this one has a little more edge than Gerard Butler. Based on the DC comic series, Jonah Hex, played by Josh Brolin, is a ruthless Wild West bounty hunter capable of capturing just about anyone he comes across. The story is set in the late 1800s, with Hex, who is balancing the divide of the real and unnatural world, asked to hunt down terrorist Quentin Turnbull (John Malkovich) in exchange for his own emancipation. The twist? Turnbull is Hex’s oldest nemesis and isn’t giving up without a fight. The West becomes a little wilder when Hex’s love interest Leila (Megan Fox) walks in. Hex’s bond with the brothel worker is the closest human link he has. http://jonah-hex.warnerbros.com
