Trying to escape his past, famous gunslinger, “Wild Bill” Hickok (Luke Hemsworth), moves to the frontier town of Abilene, Kansas. When Mayor George Knox (Kris Kristofferson) hires him to be town marshal Hickok is tasked with his greatest challenge yet: taming the wildest town in the west. 
 
While delivering his own brand of frontier justice, Hickok finds himself confronted by outlaws, bandits and a powerful saloon owner (Trace Adkins), all angered by this new brand of law enforcement. 
 
As tensions mount in Abilene, a bounty is placed on Hickok’s head and Wild Bill’s reputation as the fastest draw in the west is immediately put to the test.
