Multiple outlets confirm that the Wonder Woman star is in negotiations to star in the remake of The Saint, directed by Rocketman helmer Dexter Fletcher. Fletcher will direct from a script penned by Seth Grahame-Smith. 

The Saint is based on a 1920s book series of the same name by Leslie Charteris. The book series inspired a 1960s TV show starring Roger Moore, and was turned into a film in 1997 starring Val Kilmer. 

According to Variety, Paramount Pictures is planning the reboot as a start for an ongoing feature franchise.

After starring in the summer’s biggest superhero movie, Wonder Woman, Pine will face the challenge of portraying a real-life icon – Robert F. Kennedy.

The drama series will be based off of Larry Tye’s 2016 biography Bobby Kennedy: The Making of a Liberal Icon. The book was based on the author’s interviews with Kennedy’s close friends and surviving family, including widow and sister, unpublished memoirs, and unreleased government files. The book traces Kennedy’s life, beginning as attorney general in his brother’s administration to his tragic assassination during his own presidential campaign in 1968.

Pine follows a long line of actors who have played Kennedy, including Martin Sheen, Jeffrey Donovan, Barry Pepper and most recently Peter Sarsgaard in Jackie.
