In case anybody doesn’t know, I’ve been reading up on this and on Wikipedia it states that Variety magazine reported in mid March that Paramount Pictures and Sam Raimi are in discussions to produce and direct By Any Means Necessary which is currently in pre production and expected to be released sometime in 2009. Ryan Gosling is definitely in line to play a younger Jack Ryan and the story is not based on any novel written by Clancy because at the time they discussed making the film, Clancy had not finished his latest novel and Paramount hadn’t decided whether to use that novel or write another screenplay not based on any novel. However, if Raimi directs, there is talk of multiple sequels in this new franchise so there might be hope for those of us who want to see more of Ryan’s career depicted. If I see any more information any time soon, I’ll definitely post it here. I’ll keep my eyes and ears out for everyone.

I hate the movies I would remake them truer to the novels The movie title would be cool as a novel and the movies should have one actor who gets older w/ the series

my information is, that harrison ford did not like playing this character either.
also, i think tom clancy and his view on the world is horribly outdated, and so are his stories. no ben affleck could change this. i’m not saying he could have done this :P

Doug, actually after the fall of Soviet they did change the national anthem for some time, but later on took back the old melody with new lyrics (without the patos about the greatness with communism..)

cheers

The franchise didn’t need a reboot. Like KC said, I am sorry that we won’t see Jack Ryan’s growth. I am even more sorry that it won’t be based on a book. I am surprised Clancy, who didn’t like Harrison Ford or any of the movies, is allowing this.

I agree, it’s ridiculous that they’re rebooting this again. And the fact that it’s an original script, with no involvement of Tom Clancy only guarantees it’s going to be a huge pile o crap.

The only thing that concerns me at the moment is that this is a completely original script. It is not based off any book or writing involving the character of Jack Ryan. Hopefully this will be good, but I have my concerns.
