Wahlberg to be Max Payne

Looks like Mark Wahlberg will be playing Max Payne in the movie based off a video game with the same title. The strikes me as curious. Fox is behind this, and Max Payne doesn't strike me as a very popular video game. Wouldn't there be more money in a Halo movie? Or more importantly, the upcoming Metal Gear Solid film? How about some peddle to the metal on that project?
Anyway, no word on when production starts or when we should expect this film-- Especially with the writer's strike going on. There's no word on whether or not the script has been written.
"Max Payne" is about a cop who lost his family in a, drum roll, tragic event and now he roams the streets fighting crime, solving mysteries and making sure that he breaks every rule while doing it. Take it for what it's worth.
