Maverick is a 1994 comedy Western movie, based on the 1950s television series Maverick. It was directed by Richard Donner from a screenplay by William Goldman.

It stars Mel Gibson as wisecracking gambler Bret Maverick, who is attempting to raise the entry money for a major poker contest with the dubious assistance of a charming thief (Jodie Foster) and an aging lawman (James Garner, who played Bret Maverick in the original series).

A commonly noted quote from this movie: "That was fast...did you think that was fast? I thought it was fast." Scene: Jodie Foster speaks to Mel Gibson about drawing his gun while playing poker with Billy the Kid.
