Tom Hanks in third Da Vinci Code film?

[Perdita]

Tom Hanks is reportedly ready to star in a third Da Vinci Code film.

The Oscar winner played Robert Langdon in 2006's The Da Vinci Code and its 2009 sequel Angels & Demons, both based on Dan Brown's bestselling novels. According to Cinemablend, Hanks is to reprise the role for an adaptation of Brown's third book The Lost Symbol.

"[He is] all but ready to return to the character of Robert Langdon," said a source.

The film is close to pre-production. Studio Columbia Pictures is eying a 2012 release.

It is unclear if Ron Howard, director of the first two films, will return for the sequel.

Ive only ever read the first book, I really should read the others

I've read the first two. Not seen the second film yet though.

He shouldn't do it.

The books are too formulaic, I read the last one and felt that I had read it before...

I think he should do it - purely because they will make the film, no matter what and Tom Hanks IS Robert Langdon!
Read Angels and Demons and i don't think the film does it justice - HOWEVER i absolutely adore the Da Vinci code film :) And am half way through that book!
