Vin Diesel to play hitman in...Hitman

Eidos' Hitman series is getting the Hollywood treatment with Vin Diesel set to play the role of Agent 47, probably wanting to get back to his XXX action days. Looks like Eidos is also trying to get Diesels game company, Tigon Studios to do the next Hitman game. Would it be a game of the movie about a game? Woah.
