Filming has officially begun on Django Undisputed, the new film directed and starring Claudio Del Falco, fresh from Iron fighter and The Martial Avenger. The film, which will take place in Lazio and in the Cinecittà World amusement park until the end of August, marks a further ambitious step in Del Falco's filmography, which aims to dust off the spaghetti western.

Django Undisputed tells the story of Django, a man determined to restore order to a Wild West village oppressed by violence and crime. Together with his brother, Django finds himself facing the cruel Thomas in a duel to the death to save their community and protect his mother Serena, owner of a brothel, from the tyranny of the outlaws.

Del Falco himself plays Django, while his brother, Thomas and Serena own the faces of Fabio Romagnolo, Italian IFBB PRO body building champion here in his film debut, international star Tomas Arana and Anna Rita Del Piano, within a rich cast including Michael Segal, Mauro Aversano, Francesca Giuliano, Ciro Buono and Clara Guggiari, with the participation of Massimiliano Buzzanca and the former Miss Italy Nadia Bengala. In addition, in the role of Django's father we find Ottaviano Dell'Acqua, a historic presence of the legendary films that starred Bud Spencer and Terence Hill.

"I will dedicate this film to director E.B. Clucher (Enzo Barboni) as a tribute to his They Call Me Trinity and They Kept Calling Me Trinity, true masterpieces of western cinema that inspired my entire youth," says Del Falco about Django Undisputed, whose goal is to bring back to the cinema the unmistakable atmosphere of spaghetti westerns by combining the typical Italian tradition with a modern and engaging narrative.

 Django Undisputed is produced by One Seven Movies – Saturnia Pictures, in collaboration with Roswellfilm and will be distributed worldwide by Minerva Pictures international. The release date is yet to be defined.
