Details Emerge on the New Jack Ryan Film

Producer Mace Neufield was on hand at the press conference for the upcoming film Invictus and he also spoke his new Untitled Jack Ryan Project as well. He revealed that, "We pick him up while he's on Wall Street," and while Neufield wouldn't go into specifics on the film's story, he did have more to say about the film and the series in general.

The Jack Ryan movies have never been action films. They're kind of 'thinking man's thrillers'. Jack is refered to as a water-walker because of his ability to jump ahead to a conclusion. That's very big in all the Jack Ryan films and that's why we want to portray him. He's a teacher, he's a historian. He's a linguist and he's really smart.


Neufield revealed that Hossein Amini wrote the script with Adam Cozad in the midst of a rewrite. We announced in October that Chris Pine was set to star in the film.

We'll be sure to keep you posted on any and all news surrounding this new installment in the popular franchise.

Untitled Jack Ryan Project is in development and stars Chris Pine. The film is directed by Jack Bender.

    I enjoyed 'Hunt for Red October', but 'Patriot Games' and 'Clear and Present Danger' were awsome. 'Sum of All Fears' was a disappointment, what happened to 'Rainbow Six'?

    bring back Jack Ryan. Affleck was great as Ryan, don't know if he needs to keep being reinvented.
    Jimthar - not a fan of Jesus, I'm guessing?

    I'm open for the idea it depends if it is good enough. Until then I'll keep waiting, if it does suck then another reboot will happen.

    Lol. I await this as long as Ben Affleck isn't a mile near it. I'd say bring back Harrison since he's not up to much at the moment and I'd like Jack Ryan to go out with a bang...
