Cast
- Alec Baldwin as Harland Rust, an elderly outlaw
- Patrick Scott McDermott as Lucas Hollister, Rust's grandson. Brady Noon was originally cast as Lucas but when production was delayed for over a year, his other commitments made him unable to re-commit to the role.
- Travis Fimmel as Fenton "Preacher" Lang, a bounty hunter after Rust
- Frances Fisher as Lucas' grandaunt
- Jake Busey as Drum Parker
- Josh Hopkins as Wood Helm, a sheriff. Jensen Ackles was originally cast as Helm before being replaced by Hopkins, because the delayed production caused scheduling conflicts.
- Devon Werkheiser as Boone LaFontaine
