Charlize Theron leadinga team of mercenaries who all have the ability to heal quickly when injured, essentially granting them immortality? Nothing sounds better or cooler. But the latestThe Old Guard trailer is here to show the downsides of immortality. Watch the newThe Old Guard trailer below.
Immortality sounds like fun and games, but it can be a real pain, according to Therons immortal warrior Andy. The leader of a team of mercenaries with extraordinary abilities, Andy brings in the newest immortal recruit Nile (If Beale Street Could TalksKiKi Layne) and gives her the rundown of the blessings and curses of immortality. First: its painful quite literally as the mercenaries all feel the pain of the burnings, stabbings, and gunshots that they receive in their dangerous line of work. But theres the emotional pain of leaving your family behind, as Laynes Nile soon learns, as she becomes torn between her new team and her old life.
Also rounding out the team is a French soldier who foughtalongside Napoleon (Rust and BonesMatthias Schoenaerts), and two former enemies from the Crusades (Every Blessed DaysLuca MarinelliandAladdinsMarwan Kenzari). With the arrival of Nile, the group find themselves chased byChiwetel EjioforsCIA operative andHarry Mellings pharmaceutical executive bent on experimenting on the team.
Based on the comic series from writer Greg Rucka and artist Leandro Fernandez,The Old Guard is directed byGina Prince-Bythewood, from a script by Rucka. The action-packed thriller seems like another fantastic action showcase for Theron, who withMad Max: Fury Road andAtomic Blonde, has already proven that shes the great action icon for our age.
Here is the synopsis forThe Old Guard:
Led by a warrior named Andy (Charlize Theron), a covert group of tight-knit mercenaries with a mysterious inability to die have fought to protect the mortal world for centuries. But when the team is recruited to take on an emergency mission and their extraordinary abilities are suddenly exposed, its up to Andy and Nile (KiKi Layne), the newest soldier to join their ranks, to help the group eliminate the threat of those who seek to replicate and monetize their power by any means necessary. Based on the acclaimed graphic novel by Greg Rucka and directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood (LOVE & BASKETBALL, BEYOND THE LIGHTS), THE OLD GUARD is a gritty, grounded, action-packed story that shows living forever is harder than it looks.
The Old Guard debuts on Netflix onJuly 10, 2020.
