I know he's not really an action movie guy but he would have fit the role way better. What a wasted opportunity.

I always thought that Edward Norton would make a good Max Payne. The way he nararated in fight club.

I don't know why they didn't just cast James MCcaffry. He looks plenty like him, especially now after max Payne 3, and of course he is max paynes personality.

MCCAFFREY was Max Payne in max payne 3 - Voice, acting, Motion capture all him and i thought that was cool

James Mccafrey has also given interviews and says he loves Max Payne and he will stick with Max Payne for as long as he can.

i always thought Brad Pitts character in Se7en was VERY similar to Max Payne. Looks, and character.

Ethan Hawke would make a great douchebag. Wahlberg would kick his ass. Boston vs. Pussy = no contest.

Never sell Mary Mark short on playing a douchebag.

Can't believe I never thought of Ethan Hawke. My pick for the longest time was Eric Maibus.
