While filming a gunfight in his last film The Shootist, John Wayne refused to break one old Western rule - even after being told Clint Eastwood would.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT While filming his final movie The Shootist, John Wayne refused to break one old-fashioned Western rule that Clint Eastwood would have had no issues with. The Shootist marked the final movie in a 50-year career for Wayne, though it wasn't set up that way. Wayne was approached about other movies in the years that followed, but ill health prevented him from signing on to another film before his death.
The Shootist novel also had Books shooting Cobb in the back, and director Don Siegel had set up the scene with this outcome. Siegel was also a close friend and collaborator of Eastwood, with the two having worked on films like Dirty Harry. According to an interview with Eastwood on Inside the Actor's Studio, he recounted a story of Siegel telling him about this Shootist scene, where Wayne stated plainly "I don't shoot people in the back.
Wayne Actually HAD Shot Bad Guys In The Back In His Movies Wayne found the idea of Books shooting someone in the back unthinkable, as it's not what an honorable Western character was supposed to do. Wayne became a movie star during the 1930s, and most of his Western roles featured him playing morally upstanding heroes who would wait for the villains to draw their own weapons before firing, and who generally acted in an honorable fashion.
