Agent 47

Paul Walker

Twentieth Century Fox Film is rebooting Hitman with Fast & Furious 6 star Paul Walker in a movie to be titled Agent 47. Commercials director Aleksander Bach will direct the video game adaptation, written by A Good Day to Die Hard writer Skip Woods and Michael Finch.

The Square Enix title (previously from Eidos Interactive) was turned into the 2007 movie Hitman starring Timothy Olyphant. The Xavier Gens-directed action thriller earned just under $100 million at worldwide theaters. Woods also wrote that film.

According to Deadline, the new film will shoot in Berlin and Singapore this June.

Chuck Gordon, Alex Young, and Adrian Askarieh will produce agent 47. Daniel Alter will be executive producer.

Will this film be any good? We not sure. But one thing we are sure of is that Paul Walkers casting is certainly not going to excite any fans.
