Last week, former stuntman Simon Crane was directing the Kane & Lynch movie. But that was last week! This week, word is he’s off the project, leaving the movie without a director only two months before it starts shooting.
Meet Simon Crane. He’s got huge balls. Obviously, we’re not talking about actual testicular size per se – you could have a rhinoceros penis and elephant nards for all I know. No, we’re talking about nerves of steel.
I’ve been slowly reading through a draft of the big screen adaptation of IO Interactive’s Kane & Lynch today, the movie set to star Bruce Willis as Kane, Jamie Foxx as Lynch. Screenwriter Kyle Ward has done some… interesting things.
Longtime game reviewer Jeff Gerstmann is widely seen to have been fired from gaming site GameSpot in 2007 due to his negative review of Kane & Lynch. That game’s developers consider the episode “sad”.
It might be the least graphically impressive video game trailer we’ve ever seen, clearly by design. It might also be the first teaser for Eidos’ sequel to Kane & Lynch: Dead Men.
