By “John Wick” filmmaker Chad Stahelski recently offered an update on how the Michael B. Jordan-led movie based on Tom Clancy’s “Rainbow Six” property is going.
The film will be a follow-up to Amazon Prime Video’s “Without Remorse” film which saw Jordan starring as U.S. Navy SEAL John Kelly. The final moments of that film teased a potential “Rainbow Six” film.
Speaking with The Direct, Stahelski says the team are taking the right amount of time to ensure it comes together right and so, at present, the project remains in development:
“Rainbow Six. It’s a big property. It comes from a big IP. So it’s, you know, the development to do it right. You’ve seen how both video games and in Hollywood are sometimes tricky. It’s always about doing it right and finding the right I, so it gives room for the fans to love what you’re doing. But also you have to give margin to expand out and go. We’re taking our time. A lot of good ideas of being flushed around. It’s been a lot of good development work. We just want to get it right.”
Speaking of projects in development, actor Glen Powell has provided an update regarding the long-gestating “Captain Planet” movie. Powell tells Indiewire that he’s “very, very passionate” about the project:
“I want that one to get made, and I feel like we have a very, very strong way into that world and something that I think the world wants to see, but the people that own that property have other ideas and other plans, and that’s fine.
Look, I’ll just keep making movies and keep doing what I’m going to do, and eventually, we’ll see if that ever comes back around. But at the end of the day, it’s out of your control.”
Powell is also attached to write the film alongside Jono Matt, and no director or other cast are currenlty attached.
