Derek Kolstad, creator of John Wick and Netflix's upcoming Splinter Cell: Deathwatch, has some interesting observations on series protagonist Sam Fisher.
“One of the things that I like about Sam Fisher, John Wick, and Hutch Mansell [from Nobody] is that, yes, they’re pretty badass at what they do but, more importantly, they’re not the best. They get beat up," Kolstad tells Den of Geek, later indicating that we might be getting a more hands-on, Conviction-style Fisher than the agent from the original trilogy of titles, who often stuck to the shadows. There, Fisher dealt with infiltrations with nothing but a handful of gadgets and his iconic night vision goggles at his disposal.
