The Gunman (III)

An unknown killer kills the Congolese minister of chess, but who is behind this case is not clear. Death itself becomes a catalyst for chaos and turmoil in the country. A few years later, Martin Terrier, a member of the mercenary group, who was the same mysterious sniper, returns to the Congo and unexpectedly falls into a trap. Someone is trying to frame him and other members of his group, and this someone is one of their own. In an attempt to find the customer of his base, Martin goes underground and turns to his old friends and ex-girlfriend for help. But all those who try to help him also become targets, which Terrier cannot allow. Read more In addition to playing the main character in Pierre Morel's "Hunman", Sean Penn also worked on the script. It is not the first time that the actor has acted as the direct creator of the film. He even has several directorial works to his credit. Pierre Morel, the creator of "District 13" and "Hostage" began working on films in January 2013. At the same time, he offered Penn the main role in this action film. In May of the same year, it became known that Javier Bardem was invited to the role of the main villain, who remained in the project. By autumn, almost the entire main cast of the film was selected, while filming was already underway. The "Hanmen" team started working on them at the end of spring. Work on the tape took place in Europe, in several cities. The film itself is based on the book by Jean-Patrick Manchette, which was published in 1981. The French studio StudioCanal, whose logo is known to almost everyone, became the sole owner of the rights to the tape. For Penn, his character became the first action hero, if we take the action genre specifically, as he is more used to playing in dramas. In one of the scenes of the action movie, an episode with a bullfight is shown. However, it is worth noting the fact that this type of entertainment was banned in Barcelona a few years before the shooting.
