Charlize Theron Makes Being Immortal Easy in Netflix’s Action Fantasy ‘The Old Guard’

Being immortal isn’t easy, Charlize Theron just makes it seem like it is. The Old Guard arrives July 10. Watch the trailer below:

Led by a warrior named Andy (Charlize Theron), a covert group of tight-knit mercenaries with a mysterious inability to die have fought to protect the mortal world for centuries. But when the team is recruited to take on an emergency mission and their extraordinary abilities are suddenly exposed, it’s up to Andy and Nile (KiKi Layne), the newest soldier to join their ranks, to help the group eliminate the threat of those who seek to replicate and monetize their power by any means necessary. Based on the acclaimed graphic novel by Greg Rucka and directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood (LOVE & BASKETBALL, BEYOND THE LIGHTS), THE OLD GUARD is a gritty, grounded, action-packed story that shows living forever is harder than it looks. 

The film stars Academy Award winner Charlize Theron (Monster, Mad Max: Fury Road) with KiKi Layne, Marwan Kenzari, Luca Marinelli, Harry Melling, Van Veronica Ngo, with Matthias Schoenaerts and Chiwetel Ejiofor. Directed by Gina Prince-Blythewood from the screenplay of Greg Rucka based on the graphic novel by Greg Rucka, illustrated by Leandro Fernandez.
