In February 2003, Hitman makers Eidos and IO Interactive entered negotiations with Hollywood production companies to adapt the video game to film.[3] In October 2005, Twentieth Century Fox, having acquired rights to adapt the video game, hired screenwriter Skip Woods to pen the screenplay with actor Vin Diesel executive producing and starring in the film.[4] In December 2006, Vin Diesel stepped down from the role. Timothy Olyphant was announced to be attached to the lead role,[5] but the actor stated that nothing had been confirmed.[6]

In January 2007, Olyphant was confirmed to be cast into the lead role with director Xavier Gens attached to the helm.[7] In March, actor Dougray Scott was cast as the antagonist to Agent 47, with Olga Kurylenko, Robert Knepper, Ulrich Thomsen, and Michael Offei also joining the cast. Production will begin the week of March 26, 2007 in Sofia, Bulgaria and move on to South Africa, Istanbul, St. Petersburg, and London.[2][/b]

Imo they need to use this guy because agent 47 was pretty much model after him and he is the voice actor for him as well. :(

I was thinking that too :P
 
I agree! Although I still think Metal Gear Solid would make a kick ass movie with Kurt Russel as snake.
 
They also had a teaser on the 3rd splinter cell game for a movie...But I dunno if its gonna happen or not. But a Hitman movie would be amazing.

Well I'd love him to prove me wrong sometime ^_^ [/b]

Wasn't arguing. Jason Statham is a badass. He's been able to pull off what Vin Diesl, Duwayne "The Rock" Johnson, and several others haven't. Being a convencable action star without all the over acting and tired one liners.
