James Purefoy As The Saint is Pure Genius

The response to the announcement of James Purefoy as the new Saint has been extremely positive with growing excitement -- there are many more happy Saint fans than when the Val Kilmer movie was shaping up. This choice has been really well done. Genius!

A few more details have trickled in. The Saint will be a German/Australian co-production. Exterior shots will be filmed in Berlin, Germany, with the interiors and post production will be done in Brisbane, Australia. Financing will be finalized this week, and there will certainly be even more details forthcoming in the near future.

Sigh. I need to get out more.

I saw the headline and wondered how you knew the Saint would be drinking Guinness in the film...

There will most likely be a novelization of the Pilot TV-movie written by Burl Barer..in fact there may be a series of adaptations of the TV scripts. Negotiations for publication etc are in the works. Details to follow.

I have to admit that I'm not familiar with James Purefoy, but look forward to seeing Simon once again.

Just read taht Barer will be doing the novelization, so at least we can be sure that will be a worthy effort.
