Matthias Schoenaerts joins Charlize Theron in The Old Guard for Netflix

Matthias Schoenaerts (Red Sparrow, The Mustang) and Luca Marinelli (Don’t be Bad, They Call Me Jeeg) join the previously announced Charlize Theron, KiKi Layne and Marwan Kenzari.

Old soldiers never die…and some of them don’t even fade away. Cursed with immortality, Andromache of Scythia and her comrades-in-arms ply their trade for those who can find—and afford—their services. But in the 21st century, being immortal is a difficult secret to keep, and when you live long enough, you learn that there are many fates far worse than death.

Gina Prince-Bythewood (The Secret Life of Bees, Cloak and Dagger) is set to direct The Old Guard, Skydance’s adaptation of the Greg Rucka and Leandro Fernandez comic.
