It isn’t known if the filmmakers and Tom Hanks will team up to adapt Dan Brown’s third Robert Langdon novel, The Lost Symbol, which was originally in development after Angels & Demons, although the filmmakers decided to skip over that novel and make Inferno instead, based on the book of the same name that was published in 2013.
Last month during Sony Pictures’ CinemaCon presentation in Las Vegas, the studio revealed the first look at Inferno, the third adaptation of Dan Brown’s blockbuster novel series starring Tom Hanks as Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon.
The poster, courtesy of IMDB gives us our first official look at Tom Hanks, who returns as Robert Langdon, reprising his role from 2006’s The Da Vinci Code and 2009’s Angels & Demons, which have both earned over $1.2 billion worldwide to date.
The Inferno story centers on Langdon, as he wakes up in an Italian hospital with amnesia, with no recollection of who he is, or how he got there.
