Max Payne

Max Payne is a 2016 British-American neo-noir action thriller film based on the 2001 video game of the same name by Remedy Entertainment, written by the series' creator Sam Lake and directed by Christopher Nolan, and starring British actor Cillian Murphy in the title role as an NYPD detective who later transfers to the DEA as he goes undercover to find those responsible for the deaths of his wife and daughter.

After the release of the 2008 Max Payne film, a sequel went into production and was set for a tentative 2010 release with Wahlberg and Kunis reprising their roles. John Moore was signed on to direct again. The film would have introduced Vladimir Lem, who would be working alongside Nicole Horne. The story was said to be more faithful to the Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne video game than the 2008 film was to the first game, which was a common criticism of the 2008 film by fans of the games. By 2011, however, no work had progressed on the film after Wahlberg had dropped out, and the film was silently cancelled.
