Syfy's Leviathan Wakes adaptation The Expanse has cast its leading man.
Hung alum Thomas Jane has nabbed the starring role in the cable network's adaptation of James S.A. Corey's Leviathan Wakes book series, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
The drama is described as a thriller set 200 years in the future and follows the case of a missing young woman who brings a hardened detective (Jane) and a rogue ship's captain together in a race across the solar system to expose the greatest conspiracy in human history.
Three-time Golden Globe nominee Jane will play the world-weary Miller, a native of "the Asteroid Belt" between Mars and Jupiter. Miller is a detective for a corporate security force operating as the law in the Belt. Ragged, in search of something even he can't identify, Miller remains a dedicated cop with great instincts who discovers a newfound sense of purpose when he’s put in charge of the investigation into a missing heiress.

In the 90s, i was a big fan of The Punisher comics. But when it came out, i didn't like Jane's Punisher movie. I loved War Zone though. When it came out on bluray, i got a 2 for 1, and bought both. Watching again years later, i realized i judged him too harshly. He didn't write the origin and family changes to canon. In hindsight, i see that Zane, did a good job with the role. And his own produced short, The Punisher: Dirty Laundry, that he did for comic-con one year, was pretty good. So hopefully, he can bring the intensity needed for this role on The Expanse.
