Christoph Waltz to play retired hitman in 'The Old Man'
With such a past, the hero will not have a quiet life even in old age.
Actor Christoph Waltz, known to the general public for the films "Django Unchained" and "Inglourious Basterds", will play a major role in the action movie "The Old Man".
His hero - a former assassin Terry, was retired, but did not have time to enjoy peace.
The organization for which he has worked for many years enters into a deadly fight with another clan, and asks Terry to return in order to teach all the killer tricks to a newbie.
The young mercenary does not succeed in everything, and Terry, who is accustomed to him, decides to shake the old days in order to get the guy out of trouble.
The film has already begun shooting in Ireland, with Simon West, the creator of such masterpieces as The Expendables 2, The Mechanic and Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, at the director's console.
