Netflix has just announced two huge castings for the upcoming sequel to The Old Guard starring Charlize Theron. Uma Therman and Henry Golding have both joined the sequel in unknown roles.
Known as The Old Guard 2 or The Old Guard Chapter Two: Force Multiplied, the movie is a sequel to Netflix’s The Old Guard which first landed in July 2020.
The movie came from Skydance who have been working with Netflix on a slew of projects including The Old Guard, 6 Underground, and The Adam Project. Their upcoming Netflix projects include Heart of Stone, Spy Kids: Armageddon, the Terminator anime series, and a TV adaptation of Sword Art Online.
Since the announcement of the sequel last summer, all we’ve known about the new movie is that it’s based on the Force Multiplied entry in the comic series created by Greg Rucka and Leandro Fernández. We also know that Gina Prince-Bythewood is handing directing duties over to Victoria Mahoney.
We also know we’ll see the return of Charlize Theron as Andy, Kiki Layne as Nile, Matthias Schoenaerts as Booker, Luca Marinelli as Nicky, Marwan Kenzari as Yusuf Alkaysani Joe, Veronica Ngo as Quynh, and Chiwetel Ejiofor as Copley.
