A big-screen adaptation of the original Kane & Lynch game, developed by the Hitman studio IO Interactive and released back in 2007, had been in the works for years. Over time, the project saw various Hollywood stars attached to it at different stages.
In a recent social media post, Timo Tjahjanto, the director of Nobody 2, shared that he had crafted a treatment for the Kane & Lynch film that envisioned David Harbour—known for playing Jim Hopper in Stranger Things and as Red Guardian/Florence Pugh's dad in Thunderbolts/New Avengers—in a starring role.
"Never seen a script, but a couple of years ago when that property was still kinda hot. I wrote a short treatment with James Badge Dale and David Harbour in mind," Tjahjanto wrote. "Never gotten anywhere."

Tjahjanto's treatment was just one of many concepts for the Kane & Lynch movie that ultimately never came to fruition. For several years, Bruce Willis and Jamie Foxx were attached to the project, but they both withdrew as the script underwent multiple revisions.
Later, another iteration of the film was rumored to feature Gerard Butler and Vin Diesel in the lead roles, yet this version also failed to materialize.
Following the release of an average sequel, 2010's Kane & Lynch: Dog Days, IO Interactive shifted their focus entirely to their Hitman franchise, effectively putting the Kane & Lynch series on the back burner.
