How's THIS for "Repairman Jack"? - lexator222 - 02-16-2009
Hello, All. I wanted to put this picture up here to see what you think. Is he young enough and plain enough for Jack? Let me know, Lexx

In my mental eye, Lexx, I see Jack as older--late 30s.
But a still doesn't tell a lot, does it? Film is a dynamic medium--show the audience YOU ARE JACK! (And oh, yeah--Jack would never stand still for a photo like that. Jack is stealth. That guy is, "Look at me! I'm posing with a gun!")

Sorry, that guy doesn't represent what I've pictured Jack looking like. Build and hair color are all wrong.

Well, I don't really remember, but I don't think that there is a definate physical description of JACK anywhere in the books! Just like his last name, or how much he charges for any job, it is a mystery! But I always thought of Jack being slim, and sinewy, very strong and well built, but not overly muscled. And I always thought of his hair color being either light or medium brown, not dark brown or black! Does anyone have any reference to a physical description in any of the books?

I really hate to say it, but....
Mark Wahlburg as Jack?

I must say... that fits not too bad to my imagination.

I envision Jack as a medium build muscular male. 5'10", about 190lbs with medium brown hair. Clean shaved, his features average and hooded by a baseball cap. That's the image that I have gotten. But, when one reads, we form our own Jack in the mind. What I see, others may not.

I prefer this actor to Max Payne:
