Morgan Freeman Joins Sequel to ‘The Hitman’s Bodyguard’

 

After the success of the Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson buddy comedy The Hitman’s Bodyguarda sequel seemed to have been destined at some point or another. Now that sequel is officially coming, one other big star will be joining Reynolds and Jackson’s comedic sequel. Oscar-winning iconic actor Morgan Freeman is set to join the sequel to The Hitman’s Bodyguard.

The sequel will take place along the Amalfi Coast as Michael Bryce(Reynolds) and Darius Kincaid(Jackson) are on a new mission. No other major plot details has been announced as of yet nor has Morgan Freeman’s role been specified. Though considering the thought of bringing a high profile actor like Freeman in the mix of this action comedy, it’ll be assured that he will probably have a decent sized role in this sequel.

Director Patrick Hughes is returning to the helm once again to adapt a screenplay by Tom O’Conner. The original main cast also including Salma Hayek will be reprising their roles.

The release date for The Hitman’s Bodyguard 2 is still to be determined but production is planned to begin this month.

Ryan Pineda: When it comes to film, animation, video games and other mediums, I can discuss for hours about how much on why certain films and animated media made me the person I am today. I adore the artistic merit that comes from a lot of pop-culture media and will definitely love to have a conversation about favorite movies any day! I have graduated in 2017 with a BA in Film and Television at the University of Arizona. Been passionate about writing about films due to always having an interesting outlook on the medium. Will always see a film and will definitely be sure to recommend it to someone that I know for a fact would love that movie. Not only that but will also give reasons for why I think that film did or did not work as a movie, and the same can go for other pieces of media like television, video games and especially animated projects.
