The Gray Man is getting a prequel as well as a sequel. Here is everything that you need to know about the projects.

Deadpool Joins ‘The Gray Man’ as Chris Evans Gets a Prequel for Lloyd Hansen

Netflix’s most expensive movie that fans are hoping would turn the tide in the
streaming giant’s favor again, The Gray Man is getting a prequel. And guess
who’s writing it? Deadpool’s Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick! We can only hope that
the prequel brings the fun elements of Deadpool.

The Gray Man is an adaptation of Mark Greaney’s novel of the same name. Ryan
Gosling’s Courtland Gentry, a skilled mercenary is at the center of the movie. 
He stumbles upon the CIA’s dark secrets and this sets a target on his back. The
man deployed to hunt him down is his former colleague, Chris Evans’ Lloyd
Hansen.  


WHAT IS THE GRAY MAN PREQUEL ABOUT?

Very limited information is available on the project so far. We only know that
Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick are involved. It will focus on Chris Evans’
character Lloyd Hansen instead of Gosling’s. We might get a fascinating origin
story of the principal antagonist of the flick. 

Additionally, along with the prequel news, came another big surprise. It’s not
unknown that the Russo brothers are behind the big-budget Netflix
[https://netflixjunkie.com/category/news] movie. And they had planned to expand
the spy cinematic universe, and make it into a saga. But that was only after the
first was well-received.

However, a recent report states that a sequel to The Gray Man
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/the-gray-man] is already in the works. Another
Marvel writer, Stephen McFeely, is working on the sequel. Currently, the project
is in its nascent stages. However, if it gets made, Gosling will return to
reprise his role as Courtland Gentry, a.k.a ‘Sierra Six’.

is reuniting the duo with Evans once again after his stint as the Marvel hero,
Captain America. The brothers have directed all the Captain America films and
the last two Avengers movies. And now, they’ve made it into Netflix with the
streamer’s costliest movie to date at $200 million.

limited theatrical release on July 15. From July 22, it’ll be available to
