Are you ready for a sequel to The Hitman’s Bodyguard? Let me remind you, this not only means getting a sequel to the hilarious action film that came out many moons ago––well, only three years ago, but it also means we are getting another Ryan Reynolds film titled The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard.
Yes, that Deadpool star and filthy-mouthed charmer who ages like fine wine. The man that trolls his gorgeous wife Blake Lively, only to have her troll him back. The muscular and lean guy who casually comes up with the weirdest jokes when left alone with his friend Jake Gyllenhaal. Sometimes, we stan them more than we stan Reynolds and Lively. Yikes!

Matt O’Toole and Les Weldon produced the film while Millenium Media and Campbell Grobman Films acted as the production companies for the film.
