‘American Assassin’: First Look At Dylan O’Brien As Mitch Rapp

Deadline has given us the first look at Dylan as Mitch Rapp in the upcoming fim American Assassin. Check out the photo in our gallery!!

DEADLINE – Train your sights on this — the first photo of The Maze Runner star Dylan O’Brien in character for American Assassin, which is based on the 15-book series about counterterrorism operative Mitch Rapp.

O’Brien stars as Rapp, a CIA black ops recruit under the instruction of Cold War veteran Stan Hurley (Michael Keaton). The pair then is enlisted by CIA Deputy Director Irene Kennedy (Sanaa Lathan) to investigate a wave of apparently random attacks on military and civilian targets. Together they discover a pattern in the violence that leads them to a joint mission with a lethal Turkish agent (Shiva Negar) to stop a mysterious operative (Taylor Kitsch) intent on starting a world war in the Middle East.

Michael Cuesta is directing American Assassin from a script by Stephen Schiff. Lorenzo di Bonaventura and Nick Wechsler are producing the latest title in the partnership between CBS Films and Lionsgate. No release date has been set for the film, which is shooting in Europe.

Here is the full photo of O’Brien channeling the ruthless Rapp. We’re not sure who he’s looming over or why or where, but we wouldn’t want to be on the business end of that hand cannon he’s pointing.

‘Maze Runner: Death Cure’ Release Pushed Back to 2018

VARIETY.COM – Fox has moved back its release for “The Maze Runner: The Death Cure” by nearly a year to Jan. 12, 2018, as star Dylan O’Brien recovers from his March 17 injuries after an on-set car accident.

Fox made the announcement Friday, a month after disclosing that resumption of principal photography on “Maze Runer: The Death Cure” had been delayed for a second time to allow O’Brien more time to fully recover from his injuries. The studio has not revealed when production will re-start.

The movie — the third in the Maze Runner trilogy — had been set for a Presidents Day weekend release date of Feb, 17, 2017. Wes Ball is directing the film. O’Brien’s character is on a mission to find a cure to the “Flare,” a deadly disease.

O’Brien was hit by a car and suffered multiple injuries on March 17 on the set in British Columbia. The 24-year-old actor was taken to a local hospital for observation and treatment following the accident.

The 2014 original grossed $102 million in U.S. receipts, and 2015 follow-up “The Scorch Trials” tallied $82 million in domestic box office.

Fox made several other release date announcements Friday, including dating “Alita: Battle Angel” for July 20, 2018. Rosa Salazar, who starred in “Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials,” has been tapped to play the female lead in “Battle Angel” with James Cameron producing and Robert Rodriguez directing.
