Chris Pine will star as Jack Ryan in winter or early spring
Notice any big franchise titles missing from the summer box office?
Remember novelist Tom Clancy’s character Jack Ryan?
Producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura reveals that Jack Ryan will return before the cameras in “Moscow” in either late winter or early spring. Chris Pine of “Star Trek” fame is expected to fill the shoes of Ryan who has been played by Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford and Ben Affleck in the past.
“Moscow” isn’t based on any of the Clancy novels. Plot follows Ryan, just out of the Marines, before he joins the C.I.A., working as a financial advisor to a Russian billionaire.
Ryan gets framed and must clear his name while rescuing his wife. No director has been attached at this time.
The last Jack Ryan title starring Ben Affleck, “The Sum of All Fears,” made $118.9 million at the summer box office in 2002.

The new film carries the title ‘Moscow’ could be a prequel following Jack Ryan just out of the Marines, before he joins the CIA, working as a financial consultant for a Russian billionaire. He gets framed in a terrorist plot, and has to go on the run to clear his name and rescue his kidnapped wife. “We have a very good script and I’m very happy with where we are today” Producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura promises.

Chris Pine as Lieutenant of Inishmore – FIRST PIC!
We have the first picture of Chris Pine in his new play, The Lieutenant of Inishmore.
The show is a blistering, graphic satire on violence set in 1993 on the rocky island of Inishmore. Padraic (Pine), a hard-boiled terrorist, has been away in Northern Ireland with his busy schedule of torture and assorted nationalist mayhem, but he is lured home to Inishmore by the news that his beloved cat, Wee Thomas, is doing poorly. When Padraic finds out Wee Thomas has been murdered, he initiates a cycle of revenge-killing that threatens everyone in his path, except perhaps the love-struck Mairead (Zoe Perry), a 16-year-old terrorist groupie with a BB gun.
The Lieutenant of Inishmore starts previews at the Mark Taper Forum on June 30, opens July 11 and continues through August 8, 2010. Tickets are available at CenterTheatreGroup.org!
