Jack Palance (born Volodymyr Palahniuk; February 18, 1919 – November 10, 2006) was an American actor. Known for playing tough guys and villains, he was nominated for three Academy Awards, all for Best Actor in a Supporting Role, receiving nominations for his roles in Sudden Fear (1952) and Shane (1953) and winning almost 40 years later for his role in City Slickers (1991). Born in Lattimer Mines, Pennsylvania, the son of Ukrainian immigrants, Palance served in the United States Army Air Forces during World War II. He went on to briefly attend Stanford University before pursuing a career in the theatre. He made his film acting debut in Panic in the Streets (1950). Following his roles in Sudden Fear and Shane, Palance starred as Count Dracula in the 1974 television film Bram Stoker's Dracula, and played crime lord Yves Perret in Tango & Cash (1989). He also served as the host of the ABC television series Ripley's Believe It or Not! (1982–1986). In 2006, Palance died of natural causes at the home of his daughter Holly in Montecito, California.

In this alternate 1970 classic western adaptation of Red Dead Redemption II, the Van der Linde gang is a family of outlaws struggling to survive as the American frontier rapidly disappears. Arthur Morgan, a loyal and battle-worn outlaw, begins to question the life he has always known when his charismatic leader Dutch van der Linde leads the gang from one disastrous situation to another. As the pressure from the law, rival gangs and powerful industrialists increases, Arthur must decide whether to remain loyal to Dutch or protect the people who have become his family. Set against the final days of the Old West, this tragic story follows loyalty, betrayal, redemption and the inevitable end of an outlaw era.
