Two Crockett's Meet

[cje]

In the 1967, Film "El Dorado," "The Last Command's" Crockett actor Arthur Hunnicutt stared with "The Alamo' Crockett actor John Wayne. I just have to wonder if there was any discussion between them about playing Davy (David) Crockett? I know Mr Wayne was not happy about Republic's treatment concerning his interest in making an Alamo movie. But that he couldn't hold against Mr. Hunnicutt I hope. If the subject of playing Crockett didn't even come up, I do not know. Thanks.

According to IMDB (Internet Movie Data Base), it's not the first time you had two Crocketts meet. In 1954, John Wayne filmed William A. Wellman's "Island In The Sky", and Fess Parker had a small part as one of the rescue pilots.
