'Brokeback' adapters to shoot 'Moon' for CBS

Syndicated columnist Liz Smith reports that Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana--fresh from their Oscar victory for adapting Annie Proulx's Brokeback Mountain to the screen--are saddling up for a six-hour miniseries at CBS. Comanche Moon , a prequel to McMurtry's Lonesome Dove , will be written by McMurtry and Ossana and directed by Simon Wincer, who directed the Dove miniseries. Steve Zahn and Linda Cardellini (who costarred in Brokeback ) have already been cast as well as Val Kilmer and Rachel Griffiths. No airdate has yet been announced. ( The Advocate )
