Michael B Jordan’s “Without Remorse” is gaining steam at Paramount as “Sicario: Day of the Soldado” director Stefano Sollima is in talks to direct the studio’s adaptation of the Tom Clancy novel, an individual with knowledge of the project tells TheWrap.

Jordan will play John Clark, the head of Rainbow Six and a close ally of Clancy’s most famous creation, Jack Ryan. Clark was previously played on the screen by by Willem Dafoe in 1994’s “Clear and Present Danger,” and by Liev Schreiber in the 2002’s “The Sum of All Fears.” “Without Remorse” serves as an origin story for the character, a former Navy SEAL who joins the CIA after waging a vendetta against a drug smuggling organized crime outfit.
