Bradley Cooper replaces Jude Law in "Jane Got a Gun"

The Western revenge film "Jane Got a Gun" is losing one handsome actor, but gaining another.

Bradley Cooper is replacing Jude Law as the villain, who left the movie after its original director, Lynne Ramsay abruptly quit over creative and contract disputes, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Gavin O'Connor is now directing the movie, which is currently in production in New Mexico.

Natalie Portman stars as a woman whose outlaw husband returns home wounded from multiple gun shots, and when her husband's gang eventually tracks him down to finish him off, she is forced to reach out to an ex-lover (played by Joel Edgerton) for help.

Hopefully "Jane Got a Gun" will not suffer any more departures or change-ups.
