8. Meet Buster Scruggs - The Ballad Of Buster Scruggs

Working Title

Joel and Ethan Coen are, after an illustrious movie career, making the move to TV. Or more specifically, streaming service Netflix, where they'll write and direct the Western anthology series The Ballad of Buster Scruggs.

Not much has been revealed, but we do know that it'll tell a number of different tales set in the American frontier, and the cast includes James Franco and Zoe Kazan. The constant will be Buster Scruggs, played by Tim Blake Nelson (who previously worked with the Coens on O Brother, Where Art Thou?).

As our entry point into the latest Coens venture, and (hopefully) their latest great creation, it's going to be a joy when we do finally get to meet the titular Buster Scruggs.
