Happy Sunday to everyone and as I patiently wait to go to work all day and finally see Ballerina this coming week, I wanted to share a new clip that Netflix has dropped for their highly anticipated and long-awaited sequel The Old Guard 2. Charlize Theron returns as well as the rest of her immortal soldiers and this time Snake Eyes and Shang-Chi star Henry Golding joins the party.
The new clip is a treat for fans of Hong Kong style action as it shows Theron’s Andy tussling with Quynh (Veronica Ngô). Aside from the ever-present overuse of editing, which is a staple in action cinema these days, this is still a crackling altercation with both ladies going all in with some creative action design which utilizes their environment. If anything, it makes me more eager to check this one out when it hits Netflix on July. Scroll directly below for the goods courtesy of IGN!
Andy (Charlize Theron) and her team of immortal warriors are back, with a renewed sense of purpose in their mission to protect the world. With Booker (Matthias Schoenaerts) still in exile after his betrayal, and Quynh (Veronica Ngô) out for revenge after escaping her underwater prison, Andy grapples with her newfound mortality as a mysterious threat emerges that could jeopardize everything she’s worked towards for thousands of years.

The Old Guard 2 was helmed by Victoria Mahoney from a screenplay penned by Greg Rucka and Sarah L. Walker, based off of Rucka and artist Leandro Fernandez’s comic book which has the same name. The cast also includes returning members KiKi Layne as Nile, Marwan Kenzari as Joe, Luca Marinelli as Nicky, Chiwetel Ejiofor as Copley, Veronica Ngo as Quynh, and Matthias Schoenaerts as Booker with Henry Golding joining the franchise as Tuah and Uma Thurman as the big baddie Discord.
