Samuel L. Jackson plays a notorious hitman whose life is in danger after he's arrested and forced to testify in a widely publicized criminal trial. Ryan Reynolds plays the bodyguard hired to protect him from a convicted murderous dictator (Gary Oldman). Together, they make the oddest of odd couples as they dodge assassins while running across Europe.

Check out the new trailer for "The Hitman's Bodyguard," a 'Midnight Run'-like action comedy, which also stars Salma Hayek as Jackson's devoted wife and "Daredevil" star Elodie Yung (aka Elektra) as an Interpol agent.

Directed by Australian action helmer Patrick Hughes, whose credits include "The Expendables 3" and the cult thriller "Red Hill," "The Hitman's Bodyguard" opens in theaters on August 18th.

synopsis:
The world's top protection agent (Ryan Reynolds) is called upon to guard the life of his mortal enemy, one of the world's most notorious hitmen (Samuel L. Jackson). The relentless bodyguard and manipulative assassin have been on the opposite end of the bullet for years and are thrown together for a wildly outrageous 24 hours. During their raucous and hilarious adventure from England to the Hague, they encounter high-speed car chases, outlandish boat escapades and a merciless Eastern European dictator (Gary Oldman) who is out for blood. Salma Hayek joins the mayhem as Jackson's equally notorious wife.
