In 2017, director Patrick Hughes revisited the Friends movie with Hitman & Bodyguard. Headlining, Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. The Jacksons, who are particularly fond of the fact that they lent their features to comic book characters (Green Lantern and Deadpool for one, Nick Fury for another), play, as the genre dictates, diametrically opposed to two. Faced with men, they are forced to band together to overcome their worst ordeals.
In this case, Ryan Reynolds portrays Michael Bryce, a security guard in charge of Darius Kincaid, the killer who Samuel L. Jackson plays to be transferred from England to the International Court of Justice in The Hague.
The editing of the film proves the incredible alchemy of the duo on screen and already makes Patrick Hughes want to repeat the experience. Thanks to success Hitman and bodyguard In theaters (grossing $176 million worldwide on a $30 million budget), the production gave him the green light. Released in 2021, Hitman & Bodyguard 2 takes place after the events of its predecessor.
After everything he’s been through, Michael Bryce is enjoying a well-deserved break on an Italian beach, with instructions to refrain from any violence and keep away from any weapons. But that doesn’t count Darius Kincaid and his wife Sonia, who drag him into a new sinister plan populated by mobsters, assassins, explosions, fights and conspiracies, with the addition of a huge computer virus and a billionaire drunk on revenge!
If Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson continues to spark in their roles, they are also surrounded by such talented partners as Salma Hayek (already present in the first opus), Antonio Banderas, Morgan Freeman and Richard E. Grant.
