Deadwood Farewell - For Now

A bunch of the DW gang gathered at several locations for the Season Finale:

 


and...

Arrrrggg, Mr. Dixon!

Mike Dixon (Gunshop Owner/Bella Capper/and "I don't how many" other occupations on Deadwood) has a new gig.

This is what he looked like then:

...and his new muttonchop look for Pirates 3 where he's the stand-in and body double for actor Kevin McNally who plays the first-mate on the Black Pearl, Mr. Gibbs, in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.

On Mike's first day on Pirates, he accidentally (??) climbed aboard Johnny Depp's private ferry and cruised out to the anchored Black Pearl with him. Now doesn't that just sound like something our Mr. Dixon would do?

Quite a few guys from DW are working on Pirates and here are a few shots from the set with Dixon, Gary Sokolowski, Billy Beach, John Stapp and others.

1 - Thanks for all the photos.And thanks Nick for the info about HBO.com.In the photo of Mick and I,we're pirates on the movie "Bob Bailey".As pirates,our scene was shot on a ship in San Pedro.And across the bay,we could see the black masts and rigging of a ship that we guessed might be the Black Pearl.Apparently we guessed right. (Comment this)
