Fox has revealed the first trailer for their latest videogame adaptation Hitman: Agent 47 [HITM2] on Apple. Rupert Friend [RFRIE] takes over the title role played by Timothy Olyphant in the 2007 version. The reboot was originally set to star the late Paul Walker. Hitman: Agent 47 hits theaters on August 28th.
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.
