Dan Brown ‘Inferno’ Film: Poker Face Master Tom Hanks Recurs As Robert Langdon, ‘Rogue One’ Star Felicity Jones Joins

Dan Brown, Tom Hanks and Ron Howard team up once more for the film adaptation of "Inferno." Poker face master Tom Hanks, who also played Robert Langdon in "The Da Vinci Code" and "Angels And Demons," will star alongside Felicity Jones and Ben Foster.

The film adaptations of Dan Brown's "The Da Vinci Code" and "Angels And Demons" were each well-received. Needless to say, the bar has been set for "Inferno" by these previous Dan Brown materials.

Dan Brown wrote "Inferno" as the fourth instalment to his Robert Langdon book series. People reports that the film adaptation of Dan Brown's "Inferno" is such that even director Ron is excited about the experience.

A film on the third Dan Brown book, "The Lost Symbol," was scheduled for production in 2013. However, "The Lost Symbol" film was discontinued and Dan Brown's "Inferno" was developed instead.

Time recounts that Dan Brown's "Inferno" will see Langdon trapped between impossible choices. On the one hand, Robert Langdon could make a choice that would exterminate half of the human population. On the other hand, events in "Inferno" could force Langdon to make a choice that would render mankind extinct at the century's close.

"Making these Dan Brown movies are amazing life experiences," Ron Howard expressed. "You're thrown into these environments in ways that are really stirring and kind of explosive."

"Inferno" took Howard and cast leads Tom Hanks, "Rogue One" star Felicity Jones and "3:10 To Yuma" actor Ben Foster to Italy. Among other themes on which "Inferno" focuses is the idea of Dante's Hell and how it is relates to current times.

Between filming takes of Dan Brown's "Inferno" card game was a big hit. Ron Howard gamely shares that Tom Hanks proved to be a real master of putting on a poker face. Luckily the stakes were manageable during these "Inferno" breaks costing losers only nickels and dimes.

Dan Brown's "Inferno" was originally set for an earlier release, coinciding with "Star Wars: The Force Awakens." This was eventually adjusted to an October 28 release for "Inferno."
