* The Hitman reboot Agent 47 keeps reloading with new stars, recently bringing on Zachary Quinto to join Rupert Friend (who replaced Paul Walker) in the video game adaptation. Now comes word that Hannah Ware, star of the ABC series Betrayal, has taken the female lead. The Hitman franchise has been huge in just about every respect, with the most recent game, Hitman:Absolution selling more than 10M copies. The 2007 film starred Timothy Olyphant and made nearly $100M. Agent 47 will be directed by Alexsander Bach.
* After spooking the crap out of audiences in Orphan, then holding her own in The Hunger Games, Isabelle Fuhrman will head back to horror territory in Cell. She'll play Alice, the female lead in the film based on Stephen King's story about a cell phone signal that turns ordinary people into flesh-eating zombie killers. Fuhrman joins John Cusack and Samuel L. Jackson, with Tod Williams (Paranormal Activity 2) directing. [Deadline]
