For those who are fans of the novel series, do you know when these movies are supposed to begin being made? The announced plans I think about 3 years ago now and nothing since. Same for The Athena Project.

Also, with time passed who would you cast as Harvath? How about some of the other supporting characters such as Carlton, Ashby, Palmer, and Nicholas?

Would prefer Mitch Rapp movies but I guess these will suffice for now

It would probably never get made but I would love a Term Limits movie.

Great book. fricking fantastic.

I actually read that one second (read Transfer of Power first). Flynn had me hooked from the start.

Damned shame he died so young.

I don't really understand why they don't make more of this stuff. There is so much material to work with, it's largely easily adaptable to film, and there is, from what I can tell, a solid market for it.

I'm actually at the point now that instead of films it should be a tv series. One book can be one season of material, at least. It should be more of the Netflix, HBO variety though. I know, I know 24, Banshee, Strike Back...but these have a very different feel IMO
