Chris Pine-ing for Jack Ryan role
14 October 2009
Chris Pine is the latest actor linked to the Jack Ryan part.
The CIA analyst character is the protagonist in Tom Clancy's hugely successful novels and has been played by three actors before - Alec Baldwin in Hunt for Red October, Harrison Ford in Patriot Games and Clear and Present Danger and Ben Affleck in The Sum of all Fears.
Aaron Eckhart, Ryan Gosling and George Clooney all have been linked to the part, but it looks likely that Paramount want Star Trek's Chris Pine.
Variety reports, "Pine is expected to come aboard the Jack Ryan film as the project takes shape. They are still in deep development and it is unclear whether Pine would make another Star Trek before the Jack Ryan film."
