Agent 47 may get some luscious hair on the "Hitman" TV show.

Agent 47 is bald. That's one of those facts that everyone knows and accepts. But what if everyone's favorite hairless assassin had beautiful hair? According to Derek Kolstad, creator of "John Wick," that could become a reality if the "Hitman" TV show ever sees the light of day.

Kolstad wrote the first two episodes of the "Hitman" TV series, which Fox and Hulu announced in 2017. In an interview with Collider, Kolstad, who is also an executive producer, touched on how he brought Hitman's relatively dry nature to a digestible level for television.

"We tried to make it a combination of 'The Third Man' and 'Three Days of the Condor.' He is the familiar hitman of the game, but with bushy hair and independence. He has a handler, he makes a living, and he's the very early '80s to late '70s hitman we read about in the books.

Agent 47 probably won't spend much of the series with a full head of hair, as Kolstad says, "It ends with him looking in the mirror and finding a barcode hidden under his skin."

There is something unnerving about the thought of Agent 47 strutting around with a full head of hair. It's because baldness seems to be a large part of his iconic appearance. At the same time, I also wonder what his hairstyle will be. A ponytail, or ramen hair like N-Sink's in the 90s? A mullet? The possibilities are endless. I hope the TV show Agent 47 takes down his enemies with soda and bananas.

Note: This article initially referred to Kolstad as "Three Days of the Condor" instead of "Three Days of the Condor." The correct movie title has been updated.
