The Hunt for Jack Ryan

null

Spiderman Director, Sam Raimi wants to direct a Jack Ryan movie.

If you’ve been a Suspense-Thriller type of book reader, then you’ll be familiar with Jack Ryan: main character for many Tom Clancy novels. Not to mention that four movies have been based on this character and his adventures, namely: The Hunt for Red October, Patriot Games, Clear and Present Danger, and The Sum of All Fears. Three excellent movie stars have also portrayed this character: Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford, and Ben Affleck.

Raimis going to be delving back into the characters past. He wants a movie based on a younger Ryan, but based in the present. Although, Tom Clancy is writing a new novel based on this character, Paramount (owner of the Ryan character) has not seen it yet and therefore, cannot comment on whether the new movie will be based on the book or make up a new one.
