It’s almost time to get to know Nobody 2 . During its CinemaCon presentation at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas on Wednesday afternoon, Universal Pictures debuted a first look at the Bob Odenkirk -starrer from filmmaker Timo Tjahjanto ( May the Devil Take You ) and 87North. The film finds the Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul actor reprising his role as mild-mannered family man who is secretly a former government assassin.
John Ortiz, Connie Nielsen, Sharon Stone, Christopher Lloyd and Colin Hanks round out the cas t. The screenplay is by Derek Kolstad, Aaron Rabin, Umair Aleem and Odenkirk. The footage, which kicked off with a voiceover announcement in the theater that Odenkirk is “back to kick ass and take more names,” and the scenes that played exclusively for the Colosseum showed him doing just that.
It opens with Odenkirk’s character kicking a bunch of asses in an elevator while at a convention. When he returns home, his wife, played by Nielsen, complains that the family hasn’t seen him in months. With summer break just days away, the family decides to go on a trip together.
The next sequence shows them arriving at their vacation destination and checking out a carnival. While playing games and roaming through the attractions, the children are bullied by locals as well as carnival employees. After exiting due to the scuffles, Odenkirk’s character, Hutch, tells his wife that he forgot his phone only to return to the carnival to pummel those bullies.
Odenkirk is producing the action thriller along with Kelly McCormick and David Leitch, who are producing via 87North and their first-look deal with the studio. Marc Provissiero ( No Hard Feelings ) of Odenkirk Provissiero Entertainment and Braden Aftergood of Eighty Two Films are producing as well. Universal will introduce audiences to Nobody 2 on Aug.
