Earlier yesterday morning, it was announced out of the blue that "Fast & Furious" star Paul Walker had been cast as the new rebooted version of Agent 47 in 20th Century Fox's "Hitman" reboot, titled simply "AGENT 47". "A Good Day To Die Hard" writer Skip Woods has been signed on to pen the script. Aleksander Bach has signed on to direct the planned reboot. It's been teased that the films will be a lot more bloody and brutal than the 2007 original live-action adaption, which starred Timothy Olyphant as Agent 47.
This is pretty cool that a new "Hitman" film is being made, but I really wanted to see Olyphant return to the role though. He was the only thing that was good about the 2007 film.

My "RoboCop" Fan-Casting!
Now I know the new Robo has been cast, but I still want to do my own "fan cast" featuring my own casting of not just Robo himself, but the whole entire film too. Now I'm casting this film with a slightly older cast than what the upcoming reboot will do with a much younger cast. So let's stat with RoboCop.
Timothy Olyphant As RoboCop
I've always stuck by Olyphant. I'd cast Olyphant in pretty much anything that comes up. He never get's the best of roles. He needs to be appriciated a lot more. This is why I've cast him, because in "Hitman" he was insane and had robot-like movements, which was amazing.
Idris Elba As Sgt Reed
British actor, Idris Elba would is the only black actor that I know that would be perfect for the role of Sgt Reed. And basically that's it on this role.
Jeffery Dean Morgan as Clarence Boddicker
Morgan is a bad-ass motherfucker!!! He would totally destroy Robo when he gets his hand on him. I could cast him as Cain for a reboot sequel too. Or just switch it all around and have it that Cain and Clarence are working together in the new reboot.
Malin Akerman As Officer Anne Lewis
She's hot and she fits the role of Robo's right-hand partner. I just want to see her running around in a police uniform too.
Jackie Earl Haley As Emil
Haley looks very similar to the guy who played the original Emil. He's short, bald, strange looking facial hair and has an earring, so he'd be perfect. He's Clarence's right hand man.
Martin Sheen As The CEO Of OCP (The Old Man)
Martin Sheen is old enough to play him and I just thought fuck it, he'll do!
Tobin Bell As OCP Vise President, Dick Jones
Tobin Bell looks as though he can act like a cocky bastard, so I gave it a try and cast him as Dick Jones in the upcoming reboot.
Garret Dillahunt As Leon Nash
I just think he plays great villains in TV shows and films, hence why I'd cast him in this as a villain and the only villain character left is Leon Nash, Clarence's other left hand man.
Michael C Hall As Bob Morton
And finally we come to the creator of the RoboCop programme, Bob Morton. I would seriously cast "Dexter" star Michael C Hall in the role of the creator.

Hitman's Next Target Is Dunder Mifflin!
Timothy Olyphant is set to take on the role of a villainess type boss in the new series of "The Office". He will appear in a total of 2 episodes. Not much, but it's still cool to see him in a comedy atmosphere. He could be in more, but that's all that's revealed right now.

"Hitman" Sequel Get's It's Director..........
It's been reported that Fox has signed Spanish director, Daniel Benmayor to direct the "Hitman" sequel which is scheduled for a possibly 2011 release. The sequel is under the title of, "Hitman 2".
Adrian Askarieh, Alex Young and Chuck Gordon are producing the sequel, and Daniel Alter is executive producer. Kyle Ward wrote the script which includes elements from the fifth "Hitman" game.
It's been rumored that Timothy Olyphant may or may not return for the sequel. We'll just have to see. I think he'll return, but I'm not sure also. Before the sequel was announced, it was reported that Fox were gonna reboot it instead with a new actor, seeing as the first film was universaly panned by the critics and didn't do well in the box-office. The new actor would have most likely Vin Diesel, who was the original actor for the role of Agent 47 for the film back in 2007.
