Netflix has posted on social media that the Charlize Theron Gina Prince-Bythewood Skydance movie The Old Guard could easily become one of the streamer’s top 10 original movies. With no small amount of fortune-telling, the streamer is estimating that the pic will be seen by 72M households withing four weeks.
Should those numbers bear out, Prince-Bythewood will become the first Black female director on that list.
The movie, based on Greg Rucka’s graphic novel, who also wrote the screenplay, follows a covert team of immortal mercenaries who are suddenly exposed and must fight to keep their identity a secret just as an unexpected new member is discovered.
Theron, who also produced the movie, teased about a sequel on Seth Meyers recently, saying, “There’s obviously a relationship there (between Van Veronica Ngo’s Quynh and Theron’s Andy) that we didn’t really explore in this film…so I’m excited if we get the chance to make another one, to explore that, because then we’re just adding another female into the mix, which I think will make it really interesting.”
Yesterday, Netflix dropped their most watched movies list below. Dominic Patten reported on the streamer’s most-watched series and movies during Q2 including the Mindy Kaling co-created series Never Have I Ever (40M households globally in its four weeks of after its April 27 release), Steve Carell and Greg Daniels’Space Force series (40M households since its launch on May 29), and the Spike Lee movie Da 5 Bloods drawing an audience of 27M since its June 12 debut.
