BROSNAN IS HITMAN IN ‘FAST CHARLIE’

Pierce Brosnan has signed on to star in the Phil Noyce-directed manly movie Fast Charlie.  The film is based on Victor Gischler’s novel Gun Monkeys and will begin production in January.

Brosnan is going to take on the role of Charlie Swift, who has worked for his aging mob boss Stan for twenty years, skillfully operating as a prolific fixer and efficient hitman.

When a rival boss moves to eliminate Stan and his entire team, he fails in wiping the team clean. Now on his own, Charlie will stop at nothing to avenge his friend, and has no plans to leave anyone alive.

The film has been written by Richard Wenk (The Equalizer).
