After eleven long years, the character of Jack Ryan – created by the late Tom Clancy – is returning to the silver screen in Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit. The reboot of the franchise stars Chris Pine (Star Trek Into Darkness) as the title character, with Kenneth Branagh (Director of THOR) directing and also starring.
The Paramount Pictures film is the fifth in the series, after The Hunt for Red October (1990), Patriot Games (1992), Clear and Present Danger (1994) and The Sum of All Fears (2002). Unlike those films, Shadow Recruit is not based off any one particular novel, but an original idea. Little had been known about the plot, but you can now view the ‘Global Trailer’ embedded below for your first official look at the movie, which also features Keira Knightley (Pride & Prejudice) and Kevin Costner (Dances with Wolves).
