‘Old Guard 2’ Director Victoria Mahoney On Charlize Theron & Uma Thurman, Being #1, Sequels, ‘Star Wars’ & Miles Davis
Rocketing up the Netflix charts, The Old Guard 2 has a lot of layers, some surprises behind the curtain, director Victoria Mahoney reveals
Having weathered a global pandemic, regime changes at Netflix, fires, Hollywood strikes and more in the five years since the first OG came out, the film based on the characters from Rucka’s 2017 debuting graphic novel series has rocketed to the top of the streamer’s charts this Independence Day week. DEADLINE: And a lot of relationships and characters to work with and some serious firepower with Uma Thurman and Henry Golding joining, Charlize obviously, Veronica’s pivotal role, KiKi Layne, Luca Marinelli, Marwan Kenzari, Matthias Schoenaerts, and the great Chiwetel Ejiofor. DEADLINE: It’s been 14 years since your last feature Yelling to the Sky came out, in the interim you broke a glass ceiling in a Galaxy far far away with second unit work on The Rise of Skywalker, and piled on a career and a half on the small screen with directing on Queen Sugar, the Suits LA pilot, The Morning Show, Power, and Grey’s Anatomy and more.
