“Are you ready to get your freak on?”
Brace yourself for a killer threesome. Lionsgate has released the official trailer and poster for The Hitman’s Bodyguard’s Wife, the sequel to 2017’s The Hitman’s Bodyguard, which you can check out below.
The world’s most lethal odd couple – bodyguard Michael Bryce (Ryan Reynolds) and hitman Darius Kincaid (Samuel L. Jackson) – are back on another life-threatening mission. Still unlicensed and under scrutiny, Bryce is forced into action by Darius’s even more volatile wife, the infamous international con artist Sonia Kincaid (Salma Hayek).
As Bryce is driven over the edge by his two most dangerous protectees, the trio get in over their heads in a global plot and soon find that they are all that stand between Europe and a vengeful and powerful madman (Antonio Banderas). Joining in the fun and deadly mayhem is Morgan Freeman as…well, you’ll have to see.
The action comedy stars Ryan Reynolds, Samuel L. Jackson, Salma Hayek, with Antonio Banderas, and Morgan Freeman, Frank Grillo, Caroline Goodall, Rebecca Front, Gabriella Wright, Alice McMillan, Kristofer Kamiyasu, Tom Hopper, Blake Ritson, with Richard E. Grant.
Patrick Hughes directs with a screenplay by Tom O’Connor and Phillip Murphy & Brandon Murphy.
The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard hits theaters June 16, 2021.
