This enigmatic twist propels him into a whirlwind adventure, promising audiences an unmissable ride. Brosnan’s performance adds a layer of enjoyment, infusing the film with a charismatic and entertaining energy.

The film’s synopsis unveils the gripping narrative: “Charlie Swift, aka ‘Fast Charlie,’ finds himself in a fixer’s dilemma—the target he eliminated is missing its head. Now, he must convince the man who commissioned the hit, New Orleans’ most formidable mobster, Beggar Mercado, that it’s the intended mark.” To unravel this mystery, Charlie teams up with Marcie Kramer, the victim’s resilient ex-wife, possessing the precise blend of backbone and skills that Charlie desperately needs. Their journey catapults them into a wildly unpredictable odyssey, seamlessly blending humor, adrenaline-pumping action, and a surprising undercurrent of heartfelt moments. Along the way, the duo strives to safeguard the legacy of Charlie’s esteemed mentor, Stan Mullen, while simultaneously dismantling Beggar and his sprawling criminal empire.

Fast Charlie is masterfully helmed by director Phillip Noyce, renowned for his work on Clear and Present Danger and Salt, and boasts a screenplay crafted by the skilled Richard Wenk, known for The Equalizer and The Mechanic. The film draws inspiration from Victor Gischler’s Gun Monkeys novel, adding depth and intrigue to the narrative. The stellar cast includes Gbenga Akinnagbe, Morena Baccarin, Toby Huss, Sharon Gless, and the late James Caan, delivering a powerful final performance that serves as a fitting tribute following his passing in July 2022.

Scheduled to make its debut in select theaters and on VOD on December 8, Fast Charlie promises to be a cinematic spectacle that combines wit, action, and emotion in a unique and unforgettable way. Get ready for a rollercoaster ride through the streets of New Orleans as Brosnan leads the charge in this thrilling cinematic escapade.
