Cattle Empire is a 1958 Western DeLuxe Color movie in CinemaScope directed by Charles Marquis Warren and starring Joel McCrea. The film also features Gloria Talbott, Don Haggerty, Phyllis Coates and Bing Russell and serves as something of a forerunner for director Warren's subsequent television series Rawhide starring Eric Fleming and Clint Eastwood, which used the picture's writer Endre Bohem as well as some of its supporting cast (Paul Brinegar, Steve Raines, Rocky Shahan and Charles H. Gray).

Plot
John Cord (Joel McCrea) a brave cowboy/ex-con hits the dusty trail as the leader of a major cattle drive. He is offered the job by the very townspeople his gang terrorized a few years before. They are also the same people who put him in the slammer, and even though he accepts the task, he secretly plots his revenge. He gets it by proving himself courageous and honest.
