Chris Evans hunts Ryan Gosling in the First Trailer for ‘The Gray Man’

“Wanna make an omelet? Gotta kill some people,” proclaims The Gray Man’.

Though the sibling directors have shot one movie (the Avengers: Endgame’.

The setup is a relatively simple one: Billy Bob Thornton), Gentry was once a highly skilled, CIA-sanctioned merchant of death. He’s Sierra Six, one of the people the Agency calls in when it needs absolute deniability.

But now, after discovering evidence of a dark conspiracy, the tables have turned and Six is the target, hunted across the globe by Lloyd, a former cohort at the CIA, who will stop at nothing to take him out. Agent Dani Miranda (Ana de Armas) has his back. He’ll need it.

Adapted from Mark Greaney’s series of spy novels by Joe Russo and the directors’ regular screenwriting compatriots John Wick’.

Gosling’s Gentry is a very capable man, quick with his fists and very creative when it comes to violence. But Evans’ Hansen is pretty much his match, so it’ll be fun to watch these two go up against each other.

Yet it’s not just the central pair. The cast here also includes the likes of Scott Haze.

Both Gosling and Evans know what they’re doing in this sphere, and Evans in particular looks to be having fun playing against type as the psycho villain. It’s almost as though his Ransom Drysdale from ‘Knives Out’ ed the CIA.

‘The Gray Man’ represents the latest big-budget gamble by Extraction’, which has a sequel already in the works.

‘The Gray Man’ takes aim at a limited release in theaters from July 15, before arriving on Netflix on July 22nd.
