Netflix is doing a Splinter Cell animated series, and Michael Ironside isn't in it

The Splinter Cell remake we were promised three years ago is still nowhere to be seen, but Sam Fisher is making a comeback of sorts on Netflix, in a new animated series called Deathwatch.

There's not much to see, really. Sam Fisher, now rocking a grandfatherly beard, is sinking in the drink, although he seems remarkably unfussed by the situation. The flashback to the funeral of his old pal Doug Shetland, though, suggests he may be subconsciously grappling with regret, for reasons I will not spoil here.
