Murderer He Wrote

Skip Woods, the writer of Swordfish will adapt the vidgame Hitman to the silver screen. Vin Diesel will star as the stay-at-home dad who learns to love again from the antics of his youngest child — but not in this movie because he’s the hitman.

Variety has the scoop of course:

Studio picked up the Eidos vidgame franchise in June from producers Chuck GordonChuck Gordon and Adrian Askarieh. Diesel will exec produce and Daniel Alter will serve in a producing capacity.

The story centers on an international assassin, known as Agent 47, who works for a mysterious org dubbed the Agency.

Woods, who is getting mid-six figures for the adaptation, wrote and directed indie pic "Thursday""Thursday" and worked on remake "Logan's Run" at Warner Bros.

It’s raining vidgame movies. Oh, when will they learn?
