Funny, that article mentions Jason Statham- who was the actor I'd always thought of for the role. Must have been blatent then - would fans of the series have been happy with him?
He's done voice work for at least a couple of shooters i've played anyway.

Yeah, expect nothing. But its not Vin Diesel, which is always a good thing.

I wonder why Statham never got the part, given that he IS so similar.

However I fail to see why this gentleman can't do it

What a disgrace. Once proud that my fellow countrymen had achieved such great success with such great games, it's gonna go to **** now.

David Bateson should have been Hitman, end of story. He's the voice and soul of Hitman.

If I was Jason I would have tried to show studio executives just how serious I was about landing that role.
Perhaps by garroting Billy Zane unobserved at a packed hollywood party.

Yeah, just get him to do it. He's the voice and the original character concept is based on him for Christ sake.

Vin Diesel would be ****ing awful, only decent roles he's played were Pitch Black (required little to no acting) and Saving Private Ryan (dead in first half hour anyway).

Yeah 47 is supposed to be strong, but he's by no means a walking tank.
