THE OLD GUARD: From Comics To Screen

In anticipation of the July 10th premiere on Netflix for THE OLD GUARD film, a "From Comics To Screen"-featurette (video below) - for which I've linked a selection the graphic novels available on Amazon (*Purchasing from these links help support this humble blog, thank you) ... and you can check out MORE features of the film HERE on POPCORNX.


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.
