Jameson (Shepperd Strudwick) is based on John Tunstall and Alexander Kain (Albert Dekker) on Alexander McSween. Murphy was cast after his performance as a juvenile delinquent in Bad Boy, with Billy the Kid being depicted as a 19th-century juvenile delinquent. J. Edgar Hoover offered to narrate the film.[2] References1. ^The Kid from Texas at the Audie Murphy Memorial Site 2. ^Hedda Hopper, 'Audie Murphy Set as 'Kid From Texas' ', Los Angeles Times (1923-Current File) [Los Angeles, Calif] 8 September 1948: A6.
