Ryan Reynolds is back as the bodyguard in “The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard“. Courtesy of Lionsgate Movies, the first teaser trailer of the movie has landed online, showing Reynolds’ Michael Bryce who is dragged out of his psychiatrist-ordered sabbatical.

Set four years after events in 2017’s “The Hitman’s Bodyguard“, the sequel follows Michael as he’s still trying to recover from those events in the first movie. Under his psychiatrist’s order, he takes a break from bodyguarding and tries to find peace with a tropical getaway.

Just when he starts to find the meaning of life without bodyguarding, his vacation is cut short when Sonia Kincaid (Salma Hayek) seeks his help to save her husband Darius Kincaid (Samuel L. Jackson), who is kidnapped by mafia.

The teaser previews the hilarious banters between Michael and Darius as well as Michael’s cowardly manners to face the bad guys as he persistently refuses to use guns or commit murders.
