Hitman Movie Loses Diesel
The long nightmare is over. Ain't It Cool News is reporting that everyone's favorite primate, Vin Diesel, is no longer set to play Agent 47 in the movie adaptation of Hitman. The script has received the green light from 20th Century Fox, with Deadwood's Timothy Olyphant set to play the titular character. The movie could hit theaters as early as next fall.
Confession - I've never watched Deadwood, though many of the folks I work with have and assure me it's great casting. Please be gentle with me.
I was personally hoping for Jason Statham from The Transporter films. He's already got the outfit. Still, anything is better than Vin, who peaked with The Iron Giant. If you didn't tear up just a little during the final "Suuuu-paaahh-man" scene then you have absolutely no soul whatsoever.
