RED and Back

Those REDs – “Retired and Extremely Dangerous” – from RED are baaack.

And was there ever a doubt they would be? RED was a sleeper hit back in 2010 that not only got nominated for a Golden Globe but also made an action star out of...Helen Mirren?

No joke, and thank goodness for that.

The original had Bruce Willis in the crosshairs of a bunch of retired guns for hire, including the aforementioned Oscar winner and Morgan Freeman and John Malkovich. This summer, RED 2 will find Willis in a similar spot, although this time in Europe, with Mirren and Malkovich back for more, maybe to help, maybe not.

Mary-Louise Parker also will be back as Willis’ danger-enthusiast gf. And Catherine Zeta-Jones will pop up as an old flame of the guy’s, as will Anthony Hopkins as a villain.

Hilarity and wild action will ensue.
