Anthony Hopkins to Play Villain in RED 2

Movie Anthony Hopkins Red 2 about 12 years agoby Joey Paur

Anthony Hopkins wants to join the cast of Summit Entertainment's Red 2! He would be taking on the role of the villain in the story named Edward Bailey. They are currently trying to figure out how to make it work with the scheduling so he can do it. The actor is already committed to reprising his role of Odin in Thor 2 which is shooting around the same time. Hopefully they can work something out, because it would be great to see Hopkins as a villain again.

Red 2 is set to be directed by Dean Parisot, and stars Bruce Willis, Helen Mirren, John Malkovich, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Byung Hun-Li. Hopkins is currently playing Alfred Hitchcock in a movie about the making of Psycho.

I watched the movie Heart's of Atlantis yesterday, and forgot how awesome Hopkins was in that wonderfully made film. If you haven't seen that movie yet you should check it out!
