Could be cool. But Adam Beach is way too old already and in a couple of years?? Isn’t Turok supposed to be young, muscular and kick-ass, not a laid back 40 year old surfer dude type like Beach? I haven’t seen anything Beach has done that shows he has the intensity and physicality to pull this off. Probably will never happen anyway. I googled it and Beach has been talking about this movie for years! Guess since SVU ditched him he’s trying to get some media attention with this “announcement.”

Adam Beach is Canadian. Not American.

I worked with him on a short film when he first started out and the guy is so laid back. If you ever saw the excellent film “Dance Me Outside” he is very much like that character he plays in the film.

I really didn’t care for Beach on L&O:SVU. Everytime he delivered a line it was liking he was trying to drop a deuce at the same time. I was glad to see they didn’t renew his contract for the second year option.

@Evan: Sadly, Far Cry is being made into a movie by none other than Uwe Boll. So yeah, it’ll be crap.

It’s nice to see he’s enthusiastic about it, but I would go with someone else.

I really hope this gets the big budget it needs….

He is a terrible actor, brutal to watch on SVU and not much better in Flags…

Or how about this one…X-Men: The Videogame: The Movie. It’s a movie about a videogame about a comic. That’s Oscar gold.

When is Far Cry going to be made into a movie? It’s only a matter of time…

Welp, that’d be great and all if Adam Beach were any more interesting than a burlap bag of Idaho rocks. The guy was painful in Flags of Our Fathers and overall uninspiring to watch. Ugh. He’s the Native American Vin Diesel.

Turok was always one of my favorite games. Dinosaurs were always my favorite. This could be a fun action movie. Rambo meets Jurassic Park. :P

He went psycho on Law and Order so it’s nice to see him still active, and i don’t think Joe Dirt 2 is in pre-prodeuction yet. Kicking Wing :)

I agree with him about Turok being an awesome character and the mythos is great.

If they do the film, I hope it resembles more of the comicbook background where he looks more like a traditional Native American. Instead of some “bro” in high-tech black-rubber armor.
