First Look at Josh Brolin as Jonah Hex

Posted by Allan Ford 3 June, 2009

The first photos of Josh Brolin in costume as Jonah Hex have found their way online.

The DC Comics adaptation revolves around a bounty hunter, an American Civil War veteran with scars covering the right side of his face, who attempts to stop a Southern plantation owner from raising an army of the undead.

Jonah Hex first appeared in the early 1970s in the issues of “All-Star Western” before graduating to his own series in 1977 that ran for about 10 years. A new series was launched in 2005. The character also had a run in the 1990s that combined the Western genre with supernatural elements.

The Jimmy Hayward-directed comic book also stars John Malkovich, Megan Fox (whose pictures from the set of the movie you can see here), Will Arnett and Michael Shannon.
