Star Trek hunk Chris Pine is the new Jack Ryan.

Pine takes over the role of the all-action CIA analyst made famous by Harrison Ford, Ben Affleck and Alec Baldwin.

“With Chris in this role, we’ve taken our first step in creating a re-boot that lives up to the successful lineage of the franchise,” said Adam Goodman, Paramount Film Group president.

Baldwin played the role in 1990’s Hunt for Red October; Ford in 1992’s Patriot Games and 1994’s Clear and Present Danger; while Affleck starred in 2002’s The Sum of All Fears.

A script for Pine’s incarnation is still being worked on.

Sacha Baron Cohen will soon launch Bruno – none other than his follow-up to Borat this summer.

Universal Pictures has reportedly released a “green-band” trailer for Bruno, just as it did for Borat (Cultural Learnings of an America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan), ahead of the film’s slated July release in US cinemas.

Bruno is a reprise of an eccentric reporter, but this time as a fashion-obsessed gay Austrian -whose subjects include Arnold Schwarzenegger and Ben Affleck, it was reported.

Where Borat had the mankini, it seems Bruno has yellow hot pants, going on the movie’s poster. He also has a myspace page, it was reported. Not to mention an adopted baby, as seen on the trailer available on MTV.

Lawsuits followed Borat as interviewees claimed they had been unwittingly drawn into the film.

Larry Charles, who helmed Borat, is the director of Bruno.

The movie reportedly once had the longer title: Bruno: Delicious Journeys Through America for the Purpose of Making Heterosexual Males Visibly Uncomfortable in the Presence of a Gay Foreigner.
