One of James Mangold’s best films, starring Russell Crowe and Christian Bale, is coming to Netflix very soon.

Not all remakes are bad, like Mangold’s 2007 film, 3:10 to Yuma. The exciting western with Crowe and Bale will be released on Netflix on September 1st. The film is a remake of the 1957 classic directed by Delmer Daves and starring the legendary Glenn Ford. 3:10 to Yuma is set in 19th century Arizona and revolves around the notorious outlaw Ben Wade (Crowe) and his gang, who have caused chaos on the Southern Railroad. When the outlaw is caught, Civil War veteran Dan Evans (Bale), who is barely making ends meet, agrees to help Wade board the “3:10 to Yuma” train, which is supposed to take Wade to his trial.
