Joel Edgerton is in talks to join the cast of "We Need to Talk About Kevin" director Lynne Ramsay's new western "Jane Got A Gun" says Deadline.
The story centers on a woman (Natalie Portman) who must defend her farm when her outlaw husband returns home after a gunfight at death's door. With his gang coming to kill them, she seeks the help of an ex-lover (Michael Fassbender ) to defend themselves.
Edgerton will play John Bishop, the leader of the gang of villains.
Brian Duffield wrote the script which forced a bidding war at the Cannes Film Festival and also made last year's annual Black List of best unproduced screenplays.
Portman will also produce,
'Jane' hopes to begin shooting by early next year.
