Hitman (2007) PROPER DVDRip XviD Larceny
starring Timothy Olyphant & Dougray Scott





With principal photography now under way on Twentieth Century Fox and EuropaCorp's Hitman, an official plot synopsis for the Xavier Gens-directed action-thriller has been released. The screenplay was adapted by Skip Woods (Swordfish) from the hugely successful Eidos videogame franchise.

The official synopsis says that Agent 47 (Deadwood's Timothy Olyphant) has been educated to become a professional assassin for hire, whose most powerful weapons are his nerve and a resolute pride in his work. 47 is both the last two digits of the barcode tattooed on the nape of his neck, and his only name.

The hunter becomes the hunted when 47 gets caught up in a political takeover. Both Interpol and the Russian military chase the Hitman across Eastern Europe as he tries to find out who set him up and why they're trying to take him out of the game. But the greatest threat to 47's survival may be the stirrings of his conscience and the unfamiliar emotions aroused in him by a beautiful, damaged girl…

In addition to Olyphant, the cast includes Dougray Scott (Mission: Impossible II), Olga Kurylenko (Paris je t'aime), Robert Knepper (Prison Break), Ulrich Thomsen (Festen) and Michael Offei (Casino Royale).

Chuck Gordon, Adrian Askarieh, and EuropaCorp's Luc Besson and Pierre-Ange LePogam are producing Hitman, along with Daniel Alter co-producing. The main unit shooting in and around the Bulgarian capital of Sofia for a total of 12 weeks. A second unit will shoot in locations including South Africa, Istanbul, St. Petersburg and London.
