While Natalie Portman’s troubled western, Jane Got a Gun, was stuck busy playing cast and crew musical chairs, it seems that another film about a lady gunslinger has snuck in under the radar.

It’s been a rough couple of years for the house of mouse, with their big budget extravaganza films failing to find the financial magic that the Pirates of the Caribbean film series has brought them so far. John Carter of Mars was a massive, undeserved flop for the studio last year …
