No more Jack Ryan for Chris Pine
Movie-fone did an interview with
Chris Pine (Captain Kirk) where he revealed he's not coming back for
another Jack Ryan movie.
From
Moviefone,
((No. I don't think it made enough money for that to
happen. That's one of my deep regrets, that we didn't totally get
that right. It's a great franchise and if it's not me then I hope it
gets a fifth life at this point. It's just great. I love the spy
genre. I hope it's done again and with a great story. ))
Jack
Ryan: Shadow Recruit
was somewhat a disappointment for the studio and Paramount strangely
released the movie in January of this year. January is a dumping
ground for studios to get rid of movies they don't have faith in.
The movie was supposed to be released in Dec 2013, but got pushed
back. This is clearly an indication that the studio wasn't pleased
with the finished product.
I
found it strange that they decided to do a reboot considering the
last one was a reboot too. So, you had a reboot of a reboot to some
sequels. Strange. I also got some Alex Cross vibes from this movie
too, and we know how that movie turned out. Oh boy.
It
is refreshing to see a star speak frankly about a project. I know
that Rogen wasn't pleased with The Green Hornet.
Some reboots work like the James Bond one while others don't work.
