DeObia Oparei, who is best known for his roles in Game of Thrones and Sex Education, will be joining the star-studded ensemble cast of the upcoming film, The Gray Man.
The movie stars Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans in the lead roles. The thriller, which is being made on an epic scale, would see them go up against each other. The Gray Man is helmed by the dynamic duo of Anthony and Joe Russo. The brothers were also the brainchild behind most of the Avengers series.
The Gray Man, also starring Indian actor Dhanush in a pivotal role, is slated to release on Netflix.
The film revolves around two morally conflicted men chasing each other around the globe. An ex-CIA operative called Court Gentry (played by Ryan Gosling) is hunted by a freelance assassin Lloyd Hansen (Chris Evans), who is a former member of Gentry’s CIA operative who turned rogue.
The movie is based on the first instalment of Mark Greaney’s 2009 novel of the same name. Joe Russo penned down the screenplay with inputs from Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely.
The highly anticipated project has an ensemble cast that includes Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans, Ana de Armas, Jessica Henwick, Wagner Moura, Dhanush, Billy Bob Thornton, Alfre Woodard, Rege-Jean Page, Julia Butters, and Eme Ikwuakor.
The film, which is likely to turn into a franchise, is being produced by Joe Roth, Jeff Kirschenbaum, Russo Brothers, Mike Larocca, and Chris Castaldi.
