According to reports flying around the internebs, Academy Award winner Jamie Foxx will star alongside Bruce Willis in the movie adaptation of Eidos’ crime series Kane & Lynch.
The news originally came from movie’s writer Kyle Ward, who posted on his Twitter account (via Shacknews) earlier today, "Done deal…Jamie Foxx is in.” While I'm still looking into whether this is in fact Ward's actual Twitter account, the Foxx post has since been deleted.
An inside source told me that Foxx is currently in negotiations for the role of James Seth Lynch, but nothing has been confirmed at this time. This sounds a bit like they’re stalling to make up for Ward letting the info slip out a bit early, but until there is official confirmation, consider this one on the highly likely but not 100 percent side. Bruce Willis was confirmed to star as Adam "Kane" Marcus late last year.
I’m currently waiting to hear back from Kyle Ward’s people about all of this, so stay tuned.

ACTUALLY jamie fox plays someone else. mr nicolas cage plays opposite willis in this movie. how do i know? well i take 2 hours out of my life to actually take movie surveys over the phone. its horribly boring but you do learn alot about movies you never even knew were in development. them mentioned KANE AND LYNCH STARRING NICOLAS CAGE AND BRUCE WILLIS. i was like what???!!! and now it makes sense cause willis is in it.
SirCitadel

Hey, let's make a documentary of Martin Luther King and let Edward James Olmos play as Dr. King. Are you ok with that? Didn't think so.
Papa_bear
seriously people??? why cant u fools open ur eyes...just because they switched the ethnicity of the movie doesnt mean its gonna be wack..... if foxx acts like lynch then skin color shouldnt b a problem....so quit bein ignorant and watch the movie like i know u r gonna do anyways.... and bsides jamie foxx is coo... u havent seen booty call? haha

No offense to Jamie Fox, but I think some other actor would be suited to play Lynch. The protagonists in K&L come across as shady and sordid; Jamie Foxx, by contrast comes across as amiable, talented, good-looking...basically everything they are not.

So first we get a mediocre game followed by a sequel for some reason and now we'll get a horrible movie with a terrible actor. Awesome.
WildfireFox
Can't wait for a Movie reviewer to get fired for giving the movie an average rating.

Wont see this movie with Jaime Foxx in it. His head got to big when he played Ray so I boycott any film with him in it.
