Yesterday brought us a preview poster for the upcoming Red sequel that will see Bruce Willis reuniting with John Malkovich, Mary-Louise Parker, and Helen Mirren. We have also had news that Catherine Zeta-Jones and Byung-Hun Lee will join the cast as well. According to new reports from Deadline Summit is looking to cast Anthony Hopkins as a bad guy named Edward Bailey for the movie. The report also goes on to say that Hopkins is indeed interested with the only sticking point seeming to be whether he can get is schedule for Thor 2 to cooperate.

Red 2 will star Bruce Willis, John Malkovich, Mary-Louise Parker, Helen Mirren, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Byung-Hun Lee, and possibly Anthony Hopkins. the film is being direct by Dean Parisot with a release date of August 2nd 2013.

Hopkins could play an invalid in a coma and still make it interesting.

don't do this shite,you've got to return as odin in thor 2.

Hopkins my other favorite actor beside Gary Oldman.

It would be cool to see him against Willis, Malkovich and Mirren.

Uh oh, I hope Marvel let's the schedule's cooperate. I get the feeling that Anthony Hopkins wouldn't be afraid to leave Thor 2 for another project if he REALLY wanted to be apart of that other project.

Samuel L. Jackson would be cool to see join the team. :)
