John Sturges
faced a major problem during filming. The screenplay mentioned which of the Seven died, but in no order (the battle was not choreographed), and without being clear as to how. So Sturges came up with the idea to kill off the dying members of the seven in the order they had been cast, which went as follows: Lee (
Robert Vaughn
), Harry Luck (
Brad Dexter
), Bernardo OReilly (
Charles Bronson
), and Britt (
James Coburn
). Vaughn originally lobbied against dying first (because the character was especially created for him), so Sturges came up with a new solution, and the final death sequence which appears on film went as follows: Harry Luck (Dexter) is shot while riding back into town to join the seven who were holed up in the cantina, Lee (Vaughn) is shot after killing three bandits who were holding several villagers prisoner in a farmhouse, Britt (Coburn) is shot in the chest as he prepares to throw his knife and OReilly (Bronson) is wounded several times before this, but finally dies after being shot in the stomach while pushing the children to safety.
