Paul Walker Is the New Hitman

by | Wednesday, Feb. 06 2013

Summary

He'll step into the role vacated by Timothy Olyphant in Fox's upcoming "Hitman" sequel/reboot-type thing, titled "Agent 47." Back to Article

Comments

The Hollywood studio executives once again prove that they don't have the slightest clue about the properties they purchase. Or, even worse, maybe they simply don't care.

Who also was on their short list for the role? Taylor Kitsch?

There actually was nothing wrong with Olyphant's performance in the movie. It was everything else with the movie that was wrong. And why the hell would you bring back the original screenwriter of the original piece of celluloid crap? Fox, just stop making movies and focus on Family Guy, we all know that's where the majority of your time goes anyway.

From no hair to Gorgeous Hair! I wonder if it was originally another Jason Bourn project that they just re-named last moment?
