The film is based on the 2009 novel by Mark Greaney that centers on Court Gentry, a former CIA operative known as the Gray Man. The film adaptation follows Gentry (Gosling), who is hunted across the globe by former CIA colleague Lloyd Hansen (Evans).

Evans, who starred as Captain America in four of the Russo Bros.’ previous films, is the latest Marvel Studios actor to reteam with them. The Russos and Netflix are coming off the success of Extraction, which has become the streaming platform’s most watched original film.

The duo is in development on a sequel to the Chris Hemsworth project, which Joe wrote and the duo produced. They are also in postproduction on the Tom Holland crime drama Cherry.

The Russos’ AGBO is producing, and the script was written by Joe Russo, with consultation by Christopher Markus and Stephen Mcfeely, who scripted the Russo-directed Captain America and Avengers films.
