Question: Who was originally set to direct the film Tombstone before being replaced?

Answer: Kevin Jarre. The Tombstone screenwriter was set to make his directorial debut, but a month into filming, production fell behind schedule, and Jarre was replaced by George P. Cosmatos. The change nearly prompted Jarre’s friend Michael Biehn—who played Johnny Ringo—to quit, but he ultimately stayed on.
