Full trailer for Red 2 looks like a rollicking good time with Bruce Willis and the gang

The old fogey ex-CIA hitmen (and women) are back in action this summer with RED 2 and today we have the full trailer to appeal to your quirky action movie nature. Based on the comic by Warren Ellis and Cully Hamner, the sequel follows all the surviving familiar faces from RED, along with newbies like Anthony Hopkins, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Byung-hun Lee, as they attempt to foil a

I dug the first RED, mostly as a cheeky fun action pic, but wasn’t exactly frothing at the mouth for a sequel.

GALAXY QUEST director Dean Parisot is at the helm for this one, taking over for Robert Schwentke (who is delivering a similarly goofy action pic this summer with R.I.P.D.). And don’t worry, there’s AC/DC music in the trailer.

Here’s the synopsis:

In RED 2, the high-octane action-comedy sequel to the worldwide sleeper hit, retired black-ops CIA agent Frank Moses reunites his unlikely team of elite operatives for a global quest to track down a missing portable nuclear device. To succeed, they’ll need to survive an army of relentless assassins, ruthless terrorists and power-crazed government officials, all eager to get their hands on the next-generation weapon. The mission takes Frank and his motley crew to Paris, London and Moscow. Outgunned and outmanned, they have only their cunning wits, their old-school skills, and each other to rely on as they try to save the world-and stay alive in the process.

RED 2, starring Bruce Willis, Helen Mirren, John Malkovich, Mary-Louise Parker, Anthony Hopkins, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Byung-hun Lee, Neal McDonough, and David Thewlis, hits on July 19, 2013.
