Billy the Kid is a 1941 color remake of a 1930 movie of the same name. The film features Robert Taylor as Billy and Brian Donlevy as a fictionalized version of Pat Garrett renamed "Jim Sherwood" in the movie. Directed by David Miller and based on the book by Walter Noble Burns, the cast also included Gene Lockhart and Lon Chaney, Jr.. The film was not as well received as the 1930 original, Billy the Kid (1930 film), which had starred Wallace Beery and been shot in an experimental widescreen process.
