Kenneth Branagh Will Direct and Play Villain in New "Jack Ryan" Film

Posted: July 20th, 2012 by WorstPreviews.com Staff
Kenneth Branagh Will Direct and Play Villain in New Jack Ryan FilmSubmit Comment
Kenneth Branagh (Thor) will next direct Paramount Pictures' Jack Ryan movie, a fourth installment in the franchise that also includes "The Hunt for Red October," "Patriot Games," "Clear and Present Danger," and "The Sum of All Fears."

THR has now learned that Branagh is also negotiating to play the film's villain, Viktor Stazov, a financial wiz who, with the help of the Russian government, masterminds a plot to devalue American currency and thus destroy the US economy.

Chris Pine (Star Trek) is starring as Ryan, the ex-Marine turned analyst from the Tom Clancy novels. Here, Ryan is a financial analyst living in Moscow who uncovers a terrorist plot.

"a plot to devalue American currency and thus destroy the US economy."

^nope

Strangest thing. Maybe Viktor Stazov is a chinese name. It sure is not russian.

You and I know 'Viktor' just sounds creepy and villainous, and it has ever since Frankenstein.

Silly cliched writers.

No, Viktor is alright - pretty typical name (comes right behind Ivan and Dmitry on screenwriters lists) here, but Stazov...

By my logic a guy named Viktor Stazov should look like this (especially if his middle name is Vissarionovich):

lol. I like the title. "Is Stalin the inspiration for Mario Brothers?" LMAO.

"No, Viktor is alright - pretty typical name (comes right behind Ivan and Dmitry on screenwriters lists) here, but Stazov.."

I guess those are the Russian equivalents of John, Bill and Ted.

Ok, maybe "an inspiration".

"I guess those are the Russian equivalents of John, Bill and Ted."

Those would be... Ivan, Andrey and Pyotr I believe.


"Ivan, Andrey and Pyotr were playing balalayka,
Beside their legs was lying their drunk sobaka layka,
They drank some vodka, ate some bullets, loaded their AKs,
And that's how we established, son, our local KKK."

Typical russian poem right there, Hwood. Take notice.

I like Pine too but I don't care for this Jack Ryan character at all but might give it a chance with Kenneth directing.

Branagh as Russian couldn't be any worse than Sean Connery in The Hunt for Red October.
