In this Lionsgate action flick, we follow super spy Orson Fortune, played by the ever-charismatic JASON STATHAM, as he embarks on a perilous mission to stop the sale of a deadly new weapons technology. To accomplish this task, Fortune teams up with some of the world's best operatives, including AUBREY PLAZA, CARY ELWES, and BUGZY MALONE. But that's not all - to complete this globe-trotting undercover mission, Fortune and his team recruit Hollywood's biggest movie star Danny Francesco, portrayed by JOSH HARTNETT.
