Paramount Pictures have released the first image of Chris Pine looking just like Captain Kirk (I guess there is only so much an actor can do to make him look like someone else) in the latest in the Jack Ryan series of movies.

This film will be the fifth movie based on the Tom Clancy books following The Hunt for Red October, Patriot Games, Clear and Present Danger and The Sum of All Fears. The latter was by far my least favourite in the series of film adaptations so let’s hope they can make this one a little better.

Pine follows in the footsteps of Harrison Ford and Ben Affleck to take on the role as Ryan. This movie also stars Kevin Costner, Keira Knightley and Kenneth Branagh who also directs. This new image was taken in New York City.

It should be with us December 2013. You can click the image below to enlarge.
