What a baffling career path for Costner; a true showbiz mystery for the ages; in the early 1990's it seemed like he could magic Rothschild from H2O; he had (& has) all the natural abilities of an All Time Great, yet his stubborness has been as damaging as substance abuse - all being well, he deserves 'Mentor' parts as successful for him, as they were for Sean Connery, who began that gravy train with The Untouchables.

love Costner, much maligned by some. made some great movies (Dances with Wolves, JFK, Open Range, Untouchables, Field of Dreams and on and on) and some not too good (ummm... ok, I'm a fan alright?) but really he's just kept on going, not worried by critics or passing fashion. I'm a big fan of Harrison Ford but even I would say that Mr Ford could've taken more than one leaf out of Kev's book. Interestingly Ford was the best known Jack Ryan.
Like Pine, like Hardy (although I do think sometimes he needs to lighten up a bit in interviews) so this whole thing could be good to watch.

The only good thing about This Means War was their chemistry.

James White, It's John Clark, not John Kelly

I find it hard to take her serious as an actress, definately not right for a Jack Ryan film.

Ok since when are they making Without Remorse? Its one of my fav books so they better do it justice and keep the timeline intact as its a great book also Tom Hardy would be perfect for the role a slong as they stay true to it and dont go too hollywood.. I dont remember Harper being the guy who recruited Kelly however (or even being in the book), wasnt it Admiral Greer??

Clearly you didnt read Without Remorse. It is John Kelly and the book is the origin story of the man who becomes John Clark CIA legend and Rainbow 6 himself.

It's one of the very best Clancy books.

It was Greer.
