Russo Brothers' The Gray Man goes on floors

Filming has begun for the highly-anticipated Netflix action-adventure The Gray Man, directed by the Russo Brothers. The director duo shared the news on their Twitter and Instagram pages by posting a photo of the clapperboard with the film’s title.

Last year it was revealed Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans would take on the lead roles in the film, marking their first and fifth collaboration with the Russo brothers, respectively. It was announced last December that Dhanush will be playing an important role in the film, making it his second Hollywood film after The Extraordinary Journey of The Fakir. 

Based on Mark Greaney's 2009 novel of the same name, The Gray Man revolves around freelance assassin and former CIA operative Court Gentry (Gosling). It follows Gentry as he is hunted across the world by Lloyd Hansen (Evans), a former member of Gentry's CIA team. 

Anthony and Joe Russo will be producing the project through their AGBO banner. Joe Russo wrote the script, with Avengers: Endgame screenwriters Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely working on the final draft.

AGBO's Mike Larocca, and Joe Roth and Jeff Kirschenbaum for Roth Kirschenbaum, are also on board as producers.
