Patrick Stewart's Western 'King Lear' Comes to TNT This June as KING OF TEXAS |

 The TNT cable network has begun television advertising for a project Patrick Stewart mentioned in interviews many months ago: his western interpretation of Shakespeare's KING LEAR. The film, dubbed KING OF TEXAS, puts the TNG actor in the Lear role as a rancher in Texas with co-stars Marcia Gay Harden, Lauren Holly, and Julie Cox as Lear's daughters, along with another actor familiar to genre entertainment, Roy Scheider.
The television commercials, which only say the TV movie will debut in June, reveal a tidbit rarely seen from the actor famous for his bald head and British accent: an interestingly convincing Southern accent.
The movie is produced by Stewart, his wife Wendy Stewart (formerly Wendy Neuss, a co-producer on TNG), and Robert Halmi Sr. for Flying Freehold Productions (Stewart's production company) and Hallmark Entertainment Productions. Updating Shakespeare's famous play to 1840s Texas, Stewart plays a meglomaniacal John Lear who challenges his three daughters to prove their loyalty in order to claim their inheritance. David Alan Grier plays Lear's "razor-tongued" ranch hand, an updated version of Shakespeare's 'Fool'.
