Netflix's new big-ticket production opens with Charlize Theron and her army of immortals – played brilliantly by Matthias Schoenaerts, Marwan Kenzari, Luca Marinelli and, later, KiKi Layne – gunned down on the ground with bullet wounds in their heads.
"Is this it?" she asks, and you know you're about to watch a two-hour-long typical action movie. But The Old Guard is grounded in something more profound: The idea that living forever isn't all it's cracked up to be.
Channel24's International News Editor, Bashiera Parker, recently got a call from actor Luca Marinelli and caught up with Marwan Kenzari of Aladdin fame via Zoom.
