- Randolph Scott in Frontier Marshal (1939) This film was the second production based on Arthur Lake’s largely fictitious book. Randolph Scott plays Earp, turning in an effortless performance over a career that spawned many such roles, and the charismatic Cesar Romero plays “Doc Halliday” (that’s hard on the ears—why the change from the factual Holliday?).
- Henry Fonda in My Darling Clementine (1946) I enjoy Henry Fonda’s quiet, gentlemanly Wyatt Earp who stands up when a lady enters his presence and how he leisurely rocks back in his chair on the front stoop as he studies the town of Tombstone swirling around him.
- Hugh O’Brian in The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp (1955-1961) According to Wikipedia, Hugh O'Brian was picked for the role because of his physical resemblance to early photographs of Earp.
- Burt Lancaster in Gunfight at the O.K. Corral (1957) This was the definitive big screen telling of the Earp legend until Tombstone in the early 1990s. Burt Lancaster plays a likable, strong Earp and adding Kirk Douglas as Holliday makes for harmonious chemistry.
- Kurt Russell (Wyatt Earp) First, a brief kudos: without Kurt Russell, there’s a good chance Tombstone doesn’t get finished. When Kevin Jarre was removed as the original director of the movie, George P. Cosmatos took his place, but Kurt Russell was often the creative force behind the production.

- Sam Elliott (Virgil Earp) Being in his late 70s hasn’t slowed down Sam Elliott. Case in point: his recent success on 1883, the Yellowstone prequel that stands on its own as one of the best Western miniseries ever.
- Bill Paxton (Morgan Earp) When Bill Paxton appeared in Tombstone, he already had a number of successful films under his belt, including Stripes (1981), The Terminator (1984) and Aliens (1986).
Apr 11, 2023 · This month we’ll return to the subject of the Earps and the Clantons with a look at Tombstone (1993) starring Kurt Russell as the famed lawman Wyatt Earp. Wyatt’s brothers, Virgil and Morgan, are played by Sam Elliott and Bill Paxton, with Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday.
