Charlize Theron's Andy Fights Quynh in a 500 Year Old Battle in New Clip From THE OLD GUARD 2 — GeekTyrant
Netflix has released a new clip from the upcoming sequel The Old Guard 2 , in which we get to see Charlize Theron's character Andy and Veronica Ngo's Quynh go head to head in a battle that's 500 years in the making. Theron talked about the plot of the film, and her character's change from the first movie, in a recent interview where she stated, "The stakes have never been higher. Andy is mortal now, so there's a very real possibility that she could die during any mission this time around." The first film concluded with significant shifts in the group's dynamic: Andy (Theron) lost her immortality, Nile (KiKi Layne) gained it, and Booker (Matthias Schoenaerts) was exiled. The film's full synopsis reads: 'Andy (Charlize Theron) and her team of immortal warriors are back, with a renewed sense of purpose in their mission to protect the world. With Booker (Matthias Schoenaerts) still in exile after his betrayal, and Quynh (Veronica Ngô) out for revenge after escaping her underwater prison, Andy grapples with her newfound mortality as a mysterious threat emerges that could jeopardize everything she's worked towards for thousands of years. 'Andy, Nile (KiKi Layne), Joe (Marwan Kenzari), Nicky (Luca Marinelli) and James Copley (Chiwetel Ejiofor) enlist the help of Tuah (Henry Golding), an old friend who may provide the key to unlocking the mystery behind immortal existence.' Check out the new clip below, and watch The Old Guard 2 when it's released on Netflix on July 2nd.

The Old Guard's immortal action continues in sequel's first trailer
The Old Guard was one of Netflix's more memorable action flicks, and if the first trailer is anything to go on, the same will be true of its sequel. The streamer just released the first proper look at The Old Guard 2, which continues to follow Andromache (Charlize Theron) as the leader of a squad of immortal mercenaries, only this time around, she's having to deal with being mortal. Oh, and there's a new threat in the form of what sounds like the OG immortal being. In addition to Theron, much of the cast from the original film is returning — including KiKi Layne, Marwan Kenzari, Luca Marinelli, Matthias Schoenaerts, and Chiwetel Ejiofor — but there are also some newcomers like Uma Thurman and Henry Golding. Meanwhile, The Old Guard 2 will be directed by Victoria Mahoney (You and Lovecraft Country), and Greg Rucka (who wrote the original graphic novel) is co-writing the screenplay with Sarah L. Walker.
