Still traumatized by the events of The Hitman’s Bodyguard, and still under review for reinstatement as a AAA-certified bodyguard, Michael Bryce (Ryan Reynolds) is in therapy and overdue for a vacation. Much as the audience would come to expect, that rest and relaxation was never in the cards, as Sofia Kincaid (Salma Hayek) snags Michael back into action, kicking and screaming. In true sequel fashion, everything is on the line in The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard, as a scheming villain (Antonio Banderas) wants to plunge Europe into anarchy, Sofia and Darius (Samuel L. Jackson) are trying to have a baby, and Michael just wants to be loved and allowed to finish reading The Secret.
