Following the first poster the other day, Netflix has premiered the first trailer for the Charlize Theron-led adaptation of the Greg Rucka comic “The Old Guard” which will premiere on the service on July 10th.
The story follows a small group of immortal soldiers who have been working as mercenaries through the ages. But in the 21st century, the novelty of not dying is long gone as the group gets a jolt in their bones when they discover the existence of a new immortal, a black woman serving in the Marines, at the same time as a nefarious organization captures their undying actions on camera.
Theron, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Marwan Kenzari, Kiki Layne, Matthias Schoenaerts, Luca Marinelli, Harry Melling and Veronica Ngo co-star. Gina Prince-Blythewood (“Beyond the Lights”) helms from a script written by Rucka. David Ellison, Dana Goldberg and Don Granger produce.
