Christian Anderson. The film, written by D. R. Pedraza ("The Solomon Chronicles: Sangre del Unico"), will lens in the Texas cities of Austin, San Antonio, Liberty Hill, Betran, Boerne an Helotes.

    Gentlemen Gunfighters chronicles the life of an Englishman whose deeds, whether good or bad, have endured in Western lore and ignited the imagination of those who share his ideals of Cowboy Justice.

    Ben Thompson, born in England, migrates with his family to Texas in the Spring of 1851. He joins the Confederacy to protect his beloved State and eventually becomes Marshal of Austin. The Marshall finds himself in a skirmish with a prominent San Antonio businessman who ends up dead. Acquitted of murder and chased out of town, he is hailed a hero in Austin. Not knowing why, Ben begins trying to put his life in order, visiting those friends he is closest to. Upon his later return to San Antonio with his good friend John King Fisher and his wife Sarah Fisher, he attempts to make peace but encounters those who would demand their own brand of justice.
