Jack Ryan to return being portrayed by HARRISON FORD??

[Ptrope]

I still say, if you're going to go for a ...ahem... mature actor for Ryan, Kurt Russell is your guy; he essentially played Jack Ryan in Executive Decision and did a much better job than either Baldwin or Ford, IMHO (haven't seen Affleck as Ryan because, well, it's Ben Affleck )

One wonders whether it was Matt Damon who wrote the script for "Good Will Hunting" and that Ben Affleck just signed his name on it...kind of like Ronald D. Moore writing "Star Trek: Generations" and Brannon Braga just being the typist on it.

Doh!

I always thought Air Force One was a Jack Ryan movie and that was how they ended his trilogy. Hell, I'll keep thinking that it is.

I didn't think it was possible to bump decade-old threads.

I thought this was a new thread. I guess I should have noticed something seeing as how they are doing Jack Ryan on tv now.

Me too. I was getting a joke prepared about Ford re-visiting all his famous roles from the past before I noticed the date.

Even though I still think of Vaughn Armstrong in the role, Ford wouldn't be half bad as President Ryan.
