Jack Palance’s legacy sparks Young Guns cast reunion in Dallas

**# Young Guns Cast Reunites for Dallas Fan Expo After Jack Palance’s Passing**

A handful of the original Young Guns ensemble converged in Dallas this weekend for a fan‑focused event, marking one of the few occasions since the 1987 film that the key players have gathered together.

The gathering featured Lou Diamond Phillips, Emilio Estevez, Kiefer Sutherland, Charlie Sheen, Dermot Mulroney, Casey Siemaszko and Terry O’Quinn. The group shared photos on social media and the event’s organizers posted a brief video that captured the reunion.

In a tweet, Phillips posted a photo of himself with the others and wrote: “F’ing Epic!” #YoungGuns #Pals pic.twitter.com/qrP9UmfBYX. Mulroney also shared a snapshot with O’Quinn, who had earned later‑career fame as John Locke on *Lost* after playing Alexander McSween in the 1998 film.

The fest’s video, posted to its official channel, gives fans a quick look at the moment of camaraderie.

The reunion came after the loss of late actor Jack Palance, whose career spanned decades but who passed away before the gathering. The event highlighted how rare it is for the original core cast to meet again, especially as many have since become high‑profile stars in their own right.

### Background & Context

The 1987 film *Young Guns* introduced a group of rebellious youths and launched the careers of several now‑well‑known actors. Over the years, reunions have been infrequent. In early 2025, Emilio Estevez revealed plans for a third installment, titled *Young Guns 3: Dead or Alive*.

He appeared alongside New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham in January and announced that he would direct the new film in the state where the original and its sequel were shot. The project is listed as pre‑production, with Lou Diamond Phillips and Christian Slater set to co‑star.

Estevez and writer John Fusco are credited as writers, and original producer Morgan Creek remains on board.

Since that announcement, updates have been sparse. Estevez, who is now in his sixties, joked during a press conference that another title—*Old Guns*—had been suggested for the long‑gestating project. No further details about the film’s status or release date have surfaced.

### What Happens Next

The Dallas fan event served as a nostalgic moment for fans and cast alike, but it did not herald any new production news beyond what was already public. The brief video shared by the fest and the social‑media posts from Phillips and Mulroney captured the reunion but did not contain new information about future projects.

Fans hoping for additional updates on *Young Guns 3* will need to monitor official statements from Estevez’s office or state film agencies, as no recent developments have been reported.
