Hitman Trailer Plays on Die Hard 4.0

Anyone lining up on June 29th to check out Bruce Willis in Die Hard 4.0 (aka "Die Hard 4" or "Live Free or Die Hard") will be able to see a sneak peak of Agent 47 in the Hitman trailer that will play before the opening credits. Not only do both movies feature hairless heroes, but they also have actor Timothy Olyphant playing major roles in both movies (though he is only sans-locks in the Hitman movie).

A double-shot of Timothy Olyphant just might cure those Deadwood Blues anyone has been having. I should have known it was all going to be over the minute I saw Major Dad show up on set. Kim Phu

Although I really do love the slutty girl figurines, sometimes I do wish there were more slutty boy dolls for us gals to collect. Something I can put next to my computer to fill in the empty space that my OC poster used to be in two years ago.

NECA (the same people who do the God of War II figures) has the Agent 47 from the Hitman series of my dreams for the low, low price of $13.95, which is a steal considering I can pretend he's a little mini-Timothy Olyphant in the days to come. Kim Phu

I miss Deadwood. It was kind of like watching the West Wing with a lot of swear words. Even the Asian character who spoke no English still knew how to say one very distinct three-syllable word that containing in it "sucker".

Anyone who used to watch it knows that Timothy Olyphant, who played Seth Bolluck, like to walk around the camp like his whole back was stapled to a 2x4 (maybe it was the early-century boots, who knows). I actually think that would make him a great Agent 47 in the upcoming movie, which has been confirmed.

E News also reports that the movie, produced by Luc Besson, will have Dougray Scott as Olyphant's antagonist. Olga Kurylenko (Paris je t'aime), Robert Knepper (Prison Break), Ulrich Thomsen (Festen), and Michael Offei (Casino Royale) also have joined the cast.

But Olyphant is a bit skinny. Maybe now that he's not on a diet of booze and whores, he can bulk up to Agent 47 weight. Kim Phu
