yeh man Vin Diesel is gonna be in the new hitman movie :D hes PERFECT for the role read on or click here for the full story, not much to post though the title gives it away :):D

Chronicles of Riddick Star to play Agent 47 in Fox's adaptation of Eidos and Io Interactive's actioner; Tigon Studios in talks to work on next game

Now Diesel is poised to blur the line between games and film once again. Today's issues of the Hollywood Reporter and Variety are both reporting that the burly, bald badass has signed on to play Agent 47, the titular assassin of Eidos' Hitman series, on the big screen. Both trades say Diesel has struck a deal to star in and executive-produce 20th Century Fox's upcoming Hitman film project. Charles Gordon (Die Hard) and Adrian Askarieh (the forthcoming Spy Hunter) will produce the project, along with Eidos vice president of marketing and communications Paul Baldwin. No director is currently attached, and the film would not hit theaters until 2006--at the earliest.

u know Lex from Smallville, he seems more of a 47 type guy but he might be a bit short for the role. But vinnie is ok i guess.

great, it'll probably suck. the Rock's Doom movie is already gonna be another cheesfest from the leaked scripts. i hope Vin's version ain't gonna kill the game's style.

ive never got round to playing Hitman but Lex does seem closer (looks wise) but Vin looks cooler and is cooler, he is also more famous and a lot better overall

yea, that's my point. hollywood is gonna mess it up. if they actually followed the story of the game, i'd be surprised. but i doubt it. it's gonna be a big action movie.

well if the universe has asense of irony, the only good game based on a movie in my opinion was chronicles of riddick, now if vin deisel is some avatar for the celestial being of good fortune this game might have some style, but so far the great movies for video games count is 0

Well this topic seems to be going off somewhere else, but I'd just like to ask if I'm the only actual "Hitman" series fan. I can accept the fact that the movie would probably be a flop no matter who stars in it (it seems to go that way for most "game to movie" projects). But Vin Diesel becoming the new 47 for upcoming games??? I just think that would really change the series a lot, and in my opinion, for the worse. The series isn't supposed to be about intense action, and it seems that is what Vin Diesel is good at and what he will stick to. I just thought I'd bring up this point to anyone else who has enjoyed the Hitman series and has thought about these changes that may occur. It seemed the series was really growing and improving, but now...I dunno.:?

I'm pretty iffy on the subject of Vin playing the part of Agent 47, I think Jason Stathom (The Transporter, Cellular) fits the role alot better. But thats just my opinion.
