Ryan Reynolds, Samuel L. Jackson and Gary Oldman set for action movie The Hitman’s Bodyguard

November 22, 2015 by Gary Collinson

The cast for Millennium Films and Jeff Wadlow’s (Kick-Ass 2) upcoming action movie The Hitman’s Bodyguard has come together, with The Hollywood Reporter revealing that Ryan Reynolds, Samuel L. Jackson and Gary Oldman have signed on to appear in the film.

The Hitman’s Bodyguard follows “the world’s top protection agent (Reynolds) who has a new client: a hit man who has come in from the cold. They’ve been on opposite ends of a bullet for years and hate one another. Now they’re stuck together and have 24 hours to get to the Hague.”

Production on The Hitman’s Bodyguard is set to get underway in April, and the film is slated for release later next year.
