Bruce Willis (A Good Day to Die Hard), John Malkovich (The Perks of Being a Wallflower) and Helen Mirren (Hitchcock) are set to reunite later this year as the retired and extremely dangerous former black ops operatives Frank Moses, Marvin Boggs and Victoria for Summit Entertainment's action sequel RED 2, which has just received its first theatrical trailer and teaser poster today.
The follow-up to the 2010 hit comic book adaptation sees Dean Parisot (Justified) replacing outgoing director Robert Schwentke, with Mary-Louise Parker (Weeds) and Brian Cox (Rise of the Planet of the Apes) also returning to the cast. Joining them for the sequel are Anthony Hopkins (Thor: The Dark World), Neal McDonough (Captain America: The First Avenger), David Thewlis (Harry Potter), Byung-hun Lee (G.I. Joe: Retaliation) and Catherine Zeta-Jones (Broken City).
“In RED 2, the high-octane action-comedy sequel to the worldwide sleeper hit, retired black-ops CIA agent Frank Moses reunites his unlikely team of elite operatives for a global quest to track down a missing portable nuclear device. To succeed, they’ll need to survive an army of relentless assassins, ruthless terrorists and power-crazed government officials, all eager to get their hands on the next-generation weapon. The mission takes Frank and his motley crew to Paris, London and Moscow. Outgunned and outmanned, they have only their cunning wits, their old-school skills, and each other to rely on as they try to save the world-and stay alive in the process.”
RED 2 is scheduled for release on August 2nd.
