We have some traction now on the upcoming sequel Accident Man 2: Hitman’s Holiday which sees action superstar Scott Adkins returning to his iconic role of assassin Mike Fallon. The first movie was a perfect blend of dark humor and hardcore action and the second installment looks to up the adrenaline.
New key art has surfaced for the highly anticipated sequel which showcases Adkins and the top tier action cast. Check it out below!
Adkins stars along with Ray Stevenson who is returning from the first one. New cast additions include action heavyweights Andy Long who is a former member of the Jackie Chan stunt team, and Sarah Chang.
From previously released BTS footage, the hand to hand combat will most certainly entertain genre fans. Adkins is always evolving with his extreme fight choreography and with an altercation against a killer clown, this one will deliver the goods.
Jesse V. Johnson helmed the first film which is based on the character Mike Fallon, AKA Accident Man, which was created by Pat Mills in 1991 in the underground UK comic Toxic! Adkins’ longtime collaborator Stu Small returns to pen the sequel. The popular character got his nickname due to the fact that he was an assassin who made his hits look like accidents.
The follow up has seen a transfer of directors this time around as George and Harry Kirby will take the reigns from Jesse V. Johnson for the highly anticipated sequel.
The two have cut their teeth in the industry and has managed to put out numerous projects via their K&K productions banner. George even brings a high level of stunt knowledge to the picture having done work on various MCU projects like Marvel’s Doctor Strange along with Sony’s recent hit Venom: Let There Be Carnage. He also worked on the action-thriller American Assassin which also featured Adkins.
The release date is officially October 14th so expect a trailer to drop soon. I’m the meantime, to satisfy your need for extreme Adkins action, rewatch the sizzle reel that came out earlier this year!
Preordering the moment it becomes available, and I’d suggest everyone does the same because this is what this type of movies primarily lives by.
Really looking forward to this. I loved the first Accident Man, and I adore Scott Adkins.
At first I was a bit worried about the change of directors and fight coordinators. But now I think it might have been for the best. Scott has worked so many times with Jesse V. Johnson and Tim Man that it did risk getting stale. So it’s definitely nice to see him try something different and keep it fresh.
