"Lethal Weapon and Iron Man 3 screenwriter Shane Black has Edge, a spaghetti Western based on the Edge books by George Gilman. Fred Dekker, who is working with Black on the upcoming Predator sequel, wrote the teleplay from a story by him and Black who will direct. The two executive produce with Barry Josephson and David Greenblatt."

According to Deadline, Amazon signed Black to develop a pilot based on Terry Harknett's ultraviolent Western novel series, Edge, penned under one of his many pseudonyms, George G. Gilman. Upon their release, the Edge novels were advertised as "the most violent Westerns in print." As one Amazon reviewer put it: "Edge kills and maims people left right and center and yet one is always left feeling like he is the smart almost good guy :-)" Yup, that sounds about right for a Shane Black project. I mean, listen to this interview and tell me this isn't a match made in heaven: VIDEO-CLick to Watch!:
