America's most famous hitman couple returns to service.
Last night, actor Donald Glover announced on Instagram that he would be playing one of two lead roles in a series from the
Mr & Mrs Smith
movie
for Amazon Prime Video.
Phoebe Waller-Bridge, creator, screenwriter and producer of
Killing Eve
and
Fleabag
, will give him the answer.
“Donald and Phoebe are two of the most talented creators and performers in the world.
It is really a dream for us, as it will be for the public around the world, that these two forces of nature collaborate within the team, announced Jennifer Salke, head of Amazon studios, in a statement.
Release scheduled for 2022
Released in 2005, the film in which Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie fell in love was a real commercial success with more than $ 450 million in box office sales worldwide.
In the scenario, he is an executor for a secret organization and she is a contract killer.
While each ignores the activity of the other, the couple find themselves competing on the same mission.
The series, which is being produced by New Regency, already working on Doug Liman's feature film, is slated to be available on Amazon Prime Video in 2022. Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Donald Glover will also be executive producers.
Mr & Mrs Smith
, it's not just a film with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie since a feature film by Alfred Hitchcock, released in 1941 in France under the title
Joies matrimoniales
, already bore this name across the Atlantic.
Robert Montgomery and Carole Lombard then embodied the mythical couple.
55 years later, a series aired on CBS also borrowed this name but was only entitled to a single season of thirteen episodes.
