I personally think that David Bateson should get the role. After all HE IS 47!!!!! He's the soul reason 47 looks and sounds the way he does. My only 'beef' with casting Bateson as 47 is that i feel Bateson would need to 'buff up' abit. The 47 in the games does have a very menacing build. But i suppose if you look at how Bateson is in 'God Moves in Mysterious ways', it's like a watered down version of how the character 47 should be anyway. Remove the emotional, in depthness of 'od Moves...' and adopt a more stern, to the point kinda attitude and it's there! Why he lost the campaign to star as 47 i don't know, whoever is in charge of casting that film is off by a long-long-shot, firstly by even considering Diesel and secondly by naming Olyphant as 47 at current. The bulletin says, 'we ain't holding our breath', well, by reading the above neither are a WHOLE bunch of us!
