From Deadline.com

Deadline can now confirm the cast for this long gestating, highly anticipated action thriller that will be the first of an anticipated franchise trilogy. It resurrects the popular Tom Clancy character of CIA analyst Jack Ryan last seen on film in 2002 and now played by Chris Pine in the role already made famous by Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford, and Ben Affleck. After various starts and stops, bad luck and good fortune, Deadline also has learned that Jack Ryan finally has come together for a release in the 4th quarter of 2013.

Paramount chose to wait for Pine to complete the second installment of Star Trek in this contemporized original prequel story that picks up Ryan before he joined the CIA. (Paramount long ago locked in Pine after he played Captain Kirk.) His love interest and the female lead is Keira Knightley. Paramount was intensely searching because it’s a high profile role — an older version of the character was played by Anne Archer in the Harrison Ford films — and involves options that would potentially put the actress in three pictures.

From FirstShowing.net:

Briefly: Paramount has chosen the date for the return of Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan - Christmas 2013. Its been confirmed by Paramount and Skydance that the still-untitled Jack Ryan movie, being directed by Kenneth Branagh, is set for release December 25th, 2013 late next year. Starring as the new Jack Ryan is Chris Pine (aka Captain Kirk), joined by a cast including Branagh as a financial antagonist, plus Kevin Costner in a mentor role, and Keira Knightley as the main love interest. Shooting is supposed to start soon in London. This contemporized prequel story follows Ryan before he joined the CIA, and underwent numerous script revisions before finally getting the greenlight with Branagh. We'll follow this one to release.

Quite looking forward to this one

 

[Jason Bourne]

Quite intrigued to see this. So sad that Tom Clancy passed away today too.

Added trailer to OP.


Dunno why... but... got a strange feeling of "Tom Cruise's Action Movies" when watching this... and again... dunno why... but I'm not feeling it...

But Branagh will be EPIC!

Now this looks set to be a REAL Jack Ryan film.

Now that looks good! It's been a while since a thriller like this has been out. Looks like some good twists.

I actually like this movie and was disappointed that it didn't do well. Maybe it will be better on bluray and digital.
