Director Gary McKendry Writers Matt Sherring Ranulph Fiennes Stars Jason Statham Clive Owen Robert De Niro Storyline
Loosely-based on a true story, Killer Elite pits two of the world’s most elite operatives–Danny, a ruthless killer-for-hire (Jason Statham); and Hunter, his longtime mentor (Robert De Niro)–against the cunning leader of a secret society of former Special Air Service operatives(Clive Owen). Covering the globe from Australia to Paris, London, and the Middle East, Danny and Hunter are plunged into a highly-dangerous game of revenge and deception–where things are not always what they appear to be.
