The Old Guard (2020)

The Old Guard

The Old Guard (2020) is a fast-paced action-adventure with a fantasy core: a tightly bonded, centuries-old team of immortal mercenaries led by Andy (Charlize Theron) quietly protects humanity — until a routine mission exposes them and powerful forces begin hunting them to replicate and monetize their gift. When a newly revived soldier, Nile (Kiki Layne), is pulled into the fold, she must learn what it means to live (and not die) with these warriors while the group races to stop those who would exploit them. Viewers can expect visceral, well-choreographed combat and high-stakes set pieces paired with quieter, character-driven moments that explore loneliness, duty and the burden of endless life. The film balances gritty, bloody action with emotional resonance and moral questions about identity, legacy and what immortality would cost — delivering both adrenaline and thoughtful drama.
