But for the young people in Lucky Number Slevin director Paul McGuigan’s new film it’s no fun at all. Because this group of American ex-pats in Hong Kong find themselves on the run from a government agency that wants to use their talents to fight wars.
Chris Evans has signed up the lead the team fighting for freedom, while Djimon Hounsou, Camilla Belle and Dakota Fanning (surely ideal casting for a powerful psychic given her ability for scary, wide-eyed stares) are also on board.
David Bourla penned the sky-high concept script, and McGuigan kick off shooting this autumn in Hong Kong.
