So, those of you who read FPW's July 1st newsletter closely, saw this update on the movie...
So, it appears that the subject of another actor, other than Reynolds, for Jack has been under discussion by someone in that group for some time.
Reynolds is a virtual non-entity overseas.
After Terminator Salvation though, Sam Worthington (Australian) DOES have credit, globally.
The plot thickens!

Quote:"The same old tug of war between who can best play the part and who can fill the seats overseas. With P&A (prints and advertising - which can run more than the entire production budget) so expensive now, and DVD sales slumping, overseas box office is critical to a film's profitability."

Axioms Jack seems to live by (inadvertantly or not):
Why he does what he does: "I chose this life. I know what I'm doing. And on any given day, I could stop doing it. Today, however, isn't that day. And tomorrow won't be either." Bruce Wayne, Identity Crisis
On Rasalom: "Water's wet, the sky is blue...and good old Satan Claus, Jimmy...he's out there...and he's just gettin' stronger." Joe Hallenbeck, The Last Boyscout
Someone get the time machine, we'll go back ~6 years or so, make the movie with Edward Norton, and call it a day.
How many vikings does it take to change a light bulb?
None. The light from the burning monastery is more than sufficient.
May the Norse be with you.

Hell, at one sequel a year, we'd be on Gateways this year and Crisscross next year.
By the time Ed was finished all 15, he'd be 48 playing 38...I could live with that...it's not the years its the miles and Jack has already put on some serious miles in 13 books
How freaking awesome would that have been?

Noelie Wrote:You're answering yourself now, Wap? LOLWell...the way things are going lately (with my Internet being so slow) I can't edit the previous post to add anything because "someone" will have already posted before I'm done...so I just post assuming that it will follow one that drops in ahead of me.
This time it just never happened.
Kinda like the RJ movie.
But I'm not bitter, that's the main thing.

"Someone", huh? LOL
Not being bitter is very, very important. You know, at this point, I actually might even like Nathan Fillion more than Ed Norton as Jack - not that it matters because they're both too old. :p
