In de Hitman games speel je als Agent 47 en moet je veelal rustig, stil en bedachtzaam je target omleggen. Bij het maken van deze film is dat gelijk het ruim uit geflikkerd want 47 is hier de meest badass huurmoordenaar die je in tijden hebt gezien.
“HITMAN: AGENT 47 centers on an elite assassin who was genetically engineered from conception to be the perfect killing machine, and is known only by the last two digits on the barcode tattooed on the back of his neck. He is the culmination of decades of research – and forty-six earlier Agent clones — endowing him with unprecedented strength, speed, stamina and intelligence. His latest target is a mega-corporation that plans to unlock the secret of Agent 47’s past to create an army of killers whose powers surpass even his own. Teaming up with a young woman who may hold the secret to overcoming their powerful and clandestine enemies, 47 confronts stunning revelations about his own origins and squares off in an epic battle with his deadliest foe.”
Je zou bijna zeggen dat ze beter Jason Statham hadden kunnen casten voor de rol van Agent 47. Op 3 september zal de film hier in de bioscopen draaien.
