- WITHOUT REMORSE
 |
| Tom Hardy |
Paramount wants The Dark Knight Rises star Tom Hardy to play
shadowy CIA operative John Kelly, aka Clark, in their long-gestating adaptation
of Tom Clancy's Without Remorse.
Deadline reports that Hardy's the studio's choice for the
film, which is currently being rewritten by Oscar winner Christopher McQuarrie.
Meanwhile, Kevin Costner will play Clark's mentor at the CIA, William Harper.
Interestingly enough, Costner's character, William Harper,
will also serve as Jack Ryan's mentor in the upcoming movie starring Chris Pine
and directed by Kenneth Branagh, making Harper sort of the Nick Fury of the
Jack Ryan movies.
Based on Tom Clancy's novel of the same name, Without
Remorse tracks how ex-Navy Seal John Kelly became CIA operative Clark. The
character has previously been portrayed by Willem Dafoe in Clear and Present
Danger and Liev Schreiber in Sum Of All Fears.
