Actor Chris Pratt is in early talks to star in the reboot of espionage thriller The Saint. The 1997 film, directed by Phillip Noyce and starring Val Kilmer, is based on Leslie Charteris’ book series. The character of Simon Templar, also known as The Saint, is a high tech thief and master of disguise that becomes the anti-hero while paradoxically living in the underworld of international industrial theft and espionage.
