Variety reports that Summit Entertainment has penciled in October 22, 2010 as the day they’ll release the upcoming action-thriller, Red. Directed by Robert Schwentke (Flightplan) and based on the graphic novel by Warren Ellis and Cully Hammer, the film stars Bruce Willis as a retired black ops agent who has to contend with younger, more high-tech assassins who show up to kill him with the White House some how involved in this nefarious endeavor. The film co-stars (deep breath) Morgan Freeman, Helen Mirren, John C. Reilly, Mary Louise Parker, Julian McMahon, Ernest Borgnine, Richard Dreyfuss, and Brian Cox. We have writers on call if any more actors try to cram into this movie.
