New Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard Clip: Ryan Reynolds’ Sabbatical Abruptly Ends

June 7, 2021

Lionsgate has released a brand new clip from their upcoming action-comedy The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard, which is scheduled to arrive in theaters next week on June 16. The video features Ryan Reynolds’ Michael Bryce as he happily complies with his therapist’s sabbatical order. However, his moment of peace gets suddenly disrupted with the arrival of Salma Hayek’s Sonia.

The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard will continue to follow the world’s most lethal odd couple – bodyguard Michael Bryce and hitman Darius Kincaid – who are back on another life-threatening mission. Still unlicensed and under scrutiny, Bryce is forced into action by Darius’s even more volatile wife, the infamous international con artist Sonia Kincaid. As Bryce is driven over the edge by his two most dangerous protectees, the trio gets in over their heads in a global plot and soon finds that they are all that stands between Europe and a vengeful and powerful madman. Joining in the fun and deadly mayhem is Morgan Freeman as… well, you’ll have to see.
