Collider —
... According to HeatVision, Reilly would play “a retired CIA agent who is paranoid that everyone is out to kill him.” I haven’t read the comics or the books but I have seen a few movies with similar plots and I’m slightly pessimistic about his character’s fate. If you believe Reilly will make it to the end of the picture, bless your heart. ...

Hopefully, this film will help me wash the taste of Surrogates out of my mouth (it just won’t come off!). We can also look forward to Bruce Willis in Kevin Smith’s upcoming A Couple of Dicks and The Expendables.

John C. Reilly And Mary Louise Parker Get Painted Red
Cinema Blend News —
John C. Reilly And Mary Louise Parker Get Painted Red I had been assuming all along that in Red , the adaptation of the DC Comics book, Morgan Freeman would be playing the titular retired CIA officer who is surprised when assassins show up to kill him. Not only was it the name of his character in The Shawshank Redemption , of course, but who's better than Morgan Freeman at playing the guy you think you can take because he's old, only to destroy you? But in a new THR article, we learn that Bruce Willis is apparently playing the assassin, leaving Freeman's role completely up ...

Cinematical —
... , I wasn't particularly excited. As readers have pointed out, Ellis has many books that would be more exciting to see on the big screen. The initial casting of Bruce Willis and Morgan Freeman didn't inspire a lot of excitement, either. (I love both, but Willis as an ex-assassin? Hardly inspired.) But as Robert Schwentke has filled out his cast, things have gotten a lot more interesting. According to The Hollywood Reporter, ...
