Who will play Max Payne?

Killer Suit · 03-02-2003, 02:49 PM

Is this guy suposed to be Max Payne? I think he should be younger

Soilwork · 03-02-2003, 02:51 PM

He's in his 30's, not old at all.

Jade · 03-02-2003, 03:18 PM

Naaah.....he doesn't look like Max at all...I suggest Eric Mabius(the guy from RE movie)...

Oh well...my dream would be to see Sam Lake acting as Max Payne [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

biXen · 03-02-2003, 03:30 PM

I'm more wondering who's gonna play Max Payne in Max Payne 2 [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]

(they are using "actors" now instead of their own faces, I'm hoping that doesn't count for Sam Lake too, but it may be unless Remedy confirm otherwise)

03-02-2003, 03:48 PM

How about the one he was based on (no, not Sam Lake); MTS!

Damn you Remedy! [img]images/icons/frown.gif[/img]

[img]images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]

Nah, but what'ya gonna do ...

Oh, BTW, They'll probably end up picking David Boreanaz ...

j · 03-02-2003, 07:05 PM

I'm thinking Robbie Williams! That's right, everyone's favourite ex-Take That member!

But, dear god, don't let them pick David Boreanaz. He's way too "big" physically. IMO someone built more like Edward Norton (think Fight Club, not American History X) would fit better.

And because UBB sucks ass, I can't post the link to Mr. Williams' IMDB profile and I can't be bothered to find a fansite with any good pictures. So you can go find pictures of him yourselves, you lazy monkeys.

Likewise.

Soilwork · 03-03-2003, 12:21 AM

If there's indeed a movie.. this probably has been discussed a million times, but i found another canidate.

http://www.davincisinquest.com/img/G...ullSize/15.jpg

http://www.davincisinquest.com/img/G...ullSize/55.jpg

http://www.davincisinquest.com/img/G...ullsize/76.jpg

His name is Ian Tracey, play's Mick Leary on a Canadian TV show "Da Vinci's Inquest", it's a real good homicide show, and he play's a homicide detective.

alittle more about Ian, http://www.davincisinquest.com/about.../IanTracey.asp

discuss.

I think Eric Mabius looks less Max Payne-ish than Ian Tracey. I'd still stick with Guy Pearce.

I think Craig Sheffer, the main character from the cruddy Hellraiser Inferno also looks like Max Payne. when I saw the movie on video at my buddies house we kept calling him Max Payne. I can't really find any pictures of him though.

biXen · 03-05-2003, 08:38 PM

Craig Sheffer is 43, a bit old if you ask me. Dunno how he looks though. And the guy can't act worth shit, he smells C actor a long way [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Kev_Hectic · 03-05-2003, 10:05 PM

^ Good point, 43 is a little to old for Max, and his acting did suck [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

... I still thinks he looks like Max Payne though.

Maybe Rob Schneider could be Max Payne?

.... Rob Schneider IS... Max Payne

03-06-2003, 04:43 AM

Eric Marbius all the way!

Devil Master · 03-06-2003, 05:09 AM

These debates about who will play Max Payne in the movie remind me of the debates I could read in 1997 about who would play Fox Mulder in the X-Files movie...

theHunted · 03-06-2003, 06:13 AM

Johnny Knoxville:

not only can he do the same dirty grin,
also who'd be a better choice to do the stunts?!?

biXen · 03-06-2003, 07:14 AM

I don't think Max will be sitting in any carts running down roads anytime in that movie... [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Max also seems to have more than two braincells, even though he's a fictional character. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

tommulder · 03-10-2003, 01:49 PM

Mabius or Boreanaz, they just ned roughening up. No quier comments please [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] hehe

And anyway MP's voice is deep and those two's voices havent broken [img]images/icons/frown.gif[/img] so...

BTW who did the voice for MP?

neeek · 03-11-2003, 10:25 PM

viper, i loved that show. it was sorta like knightrider except the car didnt talk but sum of the gadgets from the car and having it turn the car into sumthing different like morphing and stuff was just soo cool.

yeh youre right tho about james mcaffrey as the voice of payne, it was him. i seen what he looks like on the viper show and i think he looks and is suitable to be cast as max payne if the movie goes in production that is. james has the look, he can act, he can even sound like max in the game himself, and most probably he could do a lotta stunts and have bullettime shootdodges so so.

its just like debating who should be cast as solid snake in the mgs solid if there is such a possibility of that happening. david hayter (x-men, guyver,) voice of snake should be snake in movie. he looks the part and sounds it also.

Uhh...could he be the "Max" of Max Payne 2??? Since Remedy said they'll put real actors in the new game...

Maddieman · 03-12-2003, 11:15 AM

Don't care as long as they keep him for the voice acting. Model change I can just about cope with; but listening to a voice actor trying to imitate another voice actor is distracting.

Actually I agree with you Devil Master, but for what I heard recently I don't know...I really hope at last they'll reveal that Sami will be again Max Payne! [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

shadow fox · 03-14-2003, 05:26 PM

how bout we just get sam lake, jimmy depp (edward scissor fingers) and the rest of the cantestents togeter and have a celeberty death match. OR, they can have a nice calm game of "tank vs pinto" chicken. OR for those of you who put on the perental lock but you dont have kids...(pansy)...they can just go through navy seal training (bud/s, hell week is only a short part of the beginnig)

or just get real people to play the rest of the people, but the real max payne plays max payne, like in "S.A.M.0.N.E."

biXen · 03-15-2003, 07:45 AM

It's Johnny Depp... hehe... and that was a REALLY silly idea... [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Soilwork · 03-15-2003, 09:45 AM

Ian Tracey was a regular on the show Viper.

Johnny Depp would be cool, he's a good actor.
