Jack Ryan, Tom Clancy’s famous CIA analyst, is back! A new film is on track to shoot soon, according to producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura. The film will be called “Moscow,” and has been penned by Hossein Amini and Adam Cozad. The famous role, previously played by Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford, and Ben Affleck, has passed to Chris Pine (“Star Trek”). The new film will follow Ryan’s time fresh out of the Marines, working for a Russian billionaire as a financial consultant. He’s framed in a terrorist plot and has to go on the run to clear his name. It’s not based directly on one of Clancy’s Jack Ryan books, so it likely stems from an earlier, unproduced script by Amini called “Dubai.”

This has “reboot” written all over it. Landing the talented Chris Pine, one of the hottest young actors in Hollywood right now, is a huge sign of Paramount’s commitment to continuing the franchise. Hold onto your hats, this could be good…
