The world’s most lethal odd couple – bodyguard Michael Bryce (Ryan Reynolds) and hitman Darius Kincaid (Samuel L. Jackson) – are back on another life-threatening mission, joined by Darius’s volatile wife Sonia Kincaid (Salma Hayek), as Lionsgate has slated the highly anticipated action-comedy The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard to hit theaters Wednesday, June 16. The announcement was made by Ron Schwartz, Lionsgate’s president of Worldwide Distribution.

The sequel builds on the success of the first film, which was #1 at the box office for an impressive three weekends in a row and took in $176 million worldwide in 2017. In the movie, Bryce – still unlicensed and under scrutiny – is forced into action by Darius and his wife, the infamous international con artist Sonia. As Bryce is driven over the edge by his two most dangerous protectees, the trio get in over their heads in a global plot and soon find that they are all that stand between Europe and a vengeful and powerful madman (Antonio Banderas). Joining in the fun and deadly mayhem is Morgan Freeman as… well, you’ll have to see.

Schwartz said, “This is the kind of summer action film that delivers even more comedy and more thrilling action than the first film – and it’s perfect for fans new to the franchise as well. The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard is what summer moviegoing is all about – great, crowd-pleasing entertainment.”

A Millennium Media production directed by Patrick Hughes from a screenplay by Tom O’Connor and Phillip Murphy & Brandon Murphy with a story by Tom O’Connor, The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard is produced by Matt O’Toole, Les Weldon, and Yariv Lerner. The executive producers are Avi Lerner, Trevor Short, Boaz Davidson, Jeffrey Greenstein, Jonathan Yunger, Matthew Milam, Christa Campbell, Lati Grobman, Heidi Jo Markel, Zygi Kamasa, Peter Possne, and Mark Gill.
