HITMAN: AGENT 47 Counts Down To Its Release With A New Promo!

Not that we know you're keeping count or anything, but in case you're willing to oblige, Twentieth Century Fox is officially counting down the aforementioned days leading to the release of Hitman: Agent 47 on August 21. Rupert Friend is the lead now spearheading the new live-action effort from director Aleksander Bach based on the hit game franchise, with actress Hannah Ware and actor Zachary Quinto joining in on the action in what easily looks to be a solid reboot from the studio's 2007 predecessor.

SYNOPSIS:

HITMAN: AGENT 47 centers on an elite assassin who was genetically engineered from conception to be the perfect killing machine, and is known only by the last two digits on the barcode tattooed on the back of his neck. He is the culmination of decades of research – and forty-six earlier Agent clones -- endowing him with unprecedented strength, speed, stamina and intelligence. His latest target is a mega-corporation that plans to unlock the secret of Agent 47’s past to create an army of killers whose powers surpass even his own. Teaming up with a young woman who may hold the secret to overcoming their powerful and clandestine enemies, 47 confronts stunning revelations about his own origins and squares off in an epic battle with his deadliest foe.
