Here dear, more help for your screen writing efforts:

"Names like Christopher Eccleston (Doctor Who) and Ian McShane 
(Deadwood) populate the cast list, but Cunningham cites the character 
of the Walker, as played by Jonathan Jackson (Riding the Bullet), as 
an example of how he hopes to appeal to a younger crowd.

"Even in the books, Walker was a young man who had aged and he'd gone 
back in time so long, so it was a matter of what was our emphasis 
going to be?" says the director. "The tragedy of a young man or the 
history of an old man? And we chose to focus on the previous and 
really make it about this guy who had this love for this girl and was 
completely screwed over, and had given his soul up for it. And so 
when he comes back, which we're shooting right now, he's back himself 
as a young man. [We're trying] to get into his head, his experience, 
and again, it's trying to reach out to the audience that we're going 
after, which is today's younger audience.""

So THAT was what the story of Walker is all about?

NOW I know.
