Agent 47 is coming back for a sequel to 2007's HITMAN!
IESB has confirmed that 20th Century Fox has hired writer Kyle Ward to pen the script for the sequel to Hitman!
The original Hitman movie was a bona fide hit released in 2007 with an estimated gross of 100 million dollars in worldwide box office receipts not including DVD sales and television broadcast rights. The film starred Timothy Olyphant as Agent 47 and launched Olga Kurylenko (Quantum of Solace) to stardom.
Adrian Askarieh, Daniel Alter and Chuck Gordon will return as producers.
Ward is one of Hollywood's hottest, young writers. He wrote Kane and Lynch currently set up over at Lionsgate starring Bruce Willis with a potential start date of later this year. He also penned Fiasco Heights for Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes over at Universal.
In addition to the movie, the Hitman video games (Volumes 1-4) have sold millions upon millions of copies worldwide. We are told to expect Hitman 5 by the end of 2010 and that it will take Agent 47 in a whole new direction.
Kyle Ward is repped at CAA.
