The Hatfields and the McCoys is a 1975 American Western television film about the feud between the Hatfields and McCoys starring Jack Palance, Steve Forrest, Richard Hatch, James Keach and Robert Carradine. The film originally aired as the ABC Movie of the Week on January 15, 1975.

During filming Carradine expressed interest that he and his brothers could play the Younger brothers in a proposed film Keach wanted to make where he and his brother Stacy played the James brothers. This led to the Keaches and the Carradines appearing in The Long Riders (1980).[1]
