Wanted, Universal’s high-octane assassin thriller starring Angelina Jolie, James McAvoy and Morgan Freeman. If you’re a fan of the Russian fantasy-horror Night Watch trilogy, you have even more reason to get excited.
If you’ve seen any of Timur Bekmanbetov’s Night Watch movies (part three, Twilight Watch, is supposedly in production) then you should feel an instant familiarity with Wanted, Bekmanbetov’s English-language and Hollywood debut. Adapted from a limited-run comic book series by Mark Millar, Wanted is about a bookish young man (James McAvoy) who discovers that his late father was a super assassin and that he is next to join the ranks of a secret society of killers with superpowers led by Morgan Freeman and Angelina Jolie.
