It’s a shame there was no way to hide the reveal that Salma Hayek’s character was the wife of Samuel L. Jackson’s hitman until audiences saw the movie. But part of the gag is the cumbersome title for the movie, so it is what it is. At least this looks like it’ll be just as much fun as the first one, so assuming you had a good time watching Reynolds and Jackson bicker, now you get to enjoy Hayek exacerbating the situation with family squabbles.
Joining the caston the bad guy side of the table isAntonio Banderas. Considering his history with Hayek on the big screen, especiallyDesperado, it would be fun if their two characters had some kind of romantic past that turned south, creating even more tension and confrontation in a movie that’s already chock full of it.Morgan Freemanalso has a role, and it’s being teased as a bit of a mystery. Maybe he’s the Hitman’s Father?The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguardis directed by Patrick Hughes, returning from the first movie, and the rest of the cast includesFrank Grillo, Caroline Goodall, Rebecca Front, Gabriella Wright, Alice McMillan, Kristofer Kamiyasu, Tom Hopper, Blake Ritson,andRichard E. Grant. There are a couple interesting names in there that should make the sequel plenty of fun.
