This news just makes me smile. Question… how can you increase the already amazing odds that an upcoming Video Game movie will suck? Answer… add an actor I just listed on the “Actors who fooled you into thinking they could act” list!
Yup, Chris O’Donnell has just joined up with the upcoming “Max Payne” feature film that is already filming in the great city of Toronto (my home area). The good folks over at ComingSoon give us this:
Entertainment Weekly reports that Chris O’Donnell has landed a role opposte Mark Wahlberg, Mila Kunis and Beau Bridges in Max Payne, 20th Century Fox’s big screen adaptation of the video game. The John Moore-directed action-adventure centers on a cop (Wahlberg), haunted by the death of his family, who’s hot on the heels of a series of new murders. O’Donnell will play executive Jason Colvin.
It’s funny. A couple of years ago Chris O’Donnell would have been the STAR of a film like this. I guess repeatedly sucking in a string of films has a way of catching up with you.

Max Payne had some filming in Hamilton. We drove by some set equipment set up roadside with “Max Payne” written on bristol board taped to the trailers.
