Paramount Pictures’ Rainbow Six movie has found its director in the talented Chad Stahelski. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the acclaimed filmmaker behind the John Wick franchise will lead the live-action adaptation of the popular 1998 spy-thriller novel. In this exciting film, Michael B. Jordan will reprise his role as the iconic Navy SEAL-turned-CIA operative John Clark. Fans can expect the Rainbow Six movie to serve as a sequel to Amazon Prime Video’s Without Remorse, staying true to Tom Clancy’s book chronology. While no plot details or release window have been revealed, anticipation is already building for this highly anticipated film.
The Hollywood Reporter also confirms that Chad Stahelski will serve as a producer on the Rainbow Six movie under his 87Eleven Entertainment banner, alongside Alex Young and Jason Spitz. It’s worth noting that Spitz is also involved in the development of the Ghost of Tsushima movie at PlayStation Productions. Both the book and film adaptations of Without Remorse provided an engaging origin story for Jordan’s character, as he delved into an international conspiracy while seeking justice for his late wife. John Clark eventually came to be known as “Rainbow Six,” leading a secret counter-terrorist unit named Rainbow. The success of the IP also led to a series of video games from Ubisoft, allowing players to partake in thrilling tactical missions.
While specific plot details remain under wraps, the synopsis of the Rainbow Six book suggests that the Rainbow team will uncover an apocalyptic conspiracy after encountering a series of seemingly unrelated terrorist attacks. Chad Stahelski, a former stuntman who rose to prominence with the Keanu Reeves-led John Wick in 2014, has solidified his status as one of the industry’s top action directors through subsequent sequels in the franchise. Currently, he is attached to direct the highly anticipated John Wick: Chapter 4, set to release on March 24, as well as the long-awaited Highlander reboot starring Henry Cavill.
In the wider Tom Clancy live-action universe, Amazon Prime Video’s Jack Ryan series is slated to conclude after its fourth season. Prior to that, the studio plans to introduce Michael Peña (known for his role in Ant-Man) as Domingo ‘Ding’ Chavez. Reports also suggest that Amazon Studios is developing a spin-off series centered around this field agent character, who appeared in several Tom Clancy novels, including Rainbow Six. Whether these TV adaptations will tie into the Rainbow Six movie to create an interconnected universe remains to be seen.
