Fast Charlie (2023)
Fast Charlie stars former James Bond Pierce Brosnan as Charlie Swift, a fixer with a problem: the target he’s whacked is missing his head and the only way Charlie will be paid is if the body can be identified. Enter Marcie Kramer (Emmy nominee Morena Baccarin from Deadpool and Homeland), the victim’s ex-wife and a woman with all the skills Charlie needs.
The film has an 83% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with Deadline calling it, “A down-home Southern gangster yarn with a staggering body count.”
Written by Richard Wenk (The Equalizer films, The Expendables 2) and directed by multi-award-winner Phillip Noyce (Salt, Rabbit Proof Fence), Fast Charlie cast includes award-winning American-Nigerian actor Gbenga Akinnagbe (Power Book II: Ghost, The Deuce, The Wire) and the late James Caan (Oscar-nominated as Sonny Corleone in The Godfather) in his final film appearance.
