Role Call: 'Mr. Ripley' Grows Up

HOLLYWOOD,
Oct. 31, 2000 -- Tom Ripley is about to strike
again, albeit under a completely different guise.
How so? Think John Malkovich and
"M:1-2's" Dougray Scott instead
of Matt Damon, for instance.

Daily Variety reports that Malkovich and Scott
are in talks to star in "Ripley's Game,"
a sort of a follow-up to last year's "The
Talented Mr. Ripley" (with Damon as the
titled character).
The new project, which is based on the third
novel in author Patricia Highsmith's Ripley
series, follows an older, married Ripley who is
looking for an assassin to rid two rivals.
Shooting of the film is set to begin in Venice
in January.
