Antoine Fuqua (Training Day) will direct spy thriller Consent to Kill for CBS Films with Lorenzo DiBonaventura and Nick Wechsler producing, reports Variety.

The film is an adaptation of the Vince Flynn novel that centers on counterterrorism agent Mitch Rapp. Rapp battled a vengeful Saudi billionaire, an ex - East German Stasi spy and a husband-and-wife team of assassins -- all while dealing with a knee injury.

Jonathan Lemkin adapted the book.

If they were gonna adapt a Flynn book they should have went for "Transfer of Power"

Let me guess, Denzel Washington will play the lead.

Oh why?....because he's BLACK!!!!!?

Good news! Hope this happens. I'm a big fan of the Mitch Rapp series. Although this particular book is the 5th or 6th in the series.

The synopsis makes it sounds like an action/comedy.
