Timothy Olyphant Is the Perfect Clint Eastwood Replacement

The Western film genre is known for its legendary stars, like John Wayne and Clint Eastwood, who defined it for much of the 20th century. However, with Wayne gone and Eastwood nearing 95, a new leading man is needed to carry the torch. That actor is Timothy Olyphant. While he isn’t known only for Westerns, Olyphant convincingly portrays a gunslinger, and a role he played in 2011 demonstrates he’s been prepared to take over as the genre’s face for years.
