Films watched in 2026 No. 5: The Man Who Would Be King.

Not read the book but I know it was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. I love the film.

Not sure whether to recommend Wonder Man. If you want regular MCU fare but in TV show-sized chunks you'll probably be disappointed. But if you want a Hollywood satire that also features superpowers you'll probably like it. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Ben Kingsley are brilliant.

Did you see Kelley star alongside Richard Widmark and Henry Fonda in Warlock? It's not actually an OK Corral film but it's got some similarities, with Fonda and Anthony Quinn playing characters loosely based on Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday.
