Nobody : Be ready for one the best action movies of this year

Emmy winner Bob Odenkirk (Better Call Saul, The Post, Nebraska) stars as Hutch Mansell, an underestimated and overlooked dad and husband, taking life’s indignities on the chin and never pushing back. A nobody. When two thieves break into his suburban home one night, Hutch declines to defend himself or his family, hoping to prevent serious violence. His teenage son, Blake (Gage Munroe, The Shack), is disappointed in him, and his wife, Becca (Connie Nielsen, Wonder Woman), seems to pull only further away. The aftermath of the incident strikes a match to Hutch’s long-simmering rage, triggering dormant instincts and propelling him on a brutal path that will surface dark secrets and lethal skills. In a barrage of fists, gunfire and squealing tires, Hutch must save his family from a dangerous adversary (famed Russian actor Alexey Serebryakov, Amazon’s McMafia)—and ensure that he will never be underestimated as a nobody again.

Nobody is directed by acclaimed filmmaker Ilya Naishuller (Hardcore Henry), from a script by Derek Kolstad, the narrative architect of the John Wick franchise, and co-stars legendary Emmy winner Christopher Lloyd as Hutch’s father and multi-hyphenate musician-actor RZA as Hutch’s brother, whose own hidden talents aid Hutch in his quest for vengeance. The film is produced by Kelly Mccormick and David Leitch, the filmmakers of Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, Deadpool 2 and Atomic Blonde, for their company 87North, by Braden Aftergood (Hell or High Water, Wind River) for his Eighty Two Films, and by Odenkirk and Marc Provissiero (Hulu’s PEN15) for Odenkirk Provissiero Entertainment. The film is executive produced by Derek Kolstad, Marc S. Fischer and Tobey Maguire. The film’s director of photography is Pawel Pogorzelski (Midsommar) and the production designer is Roger Fires (art director on Deadpool 2). The editors are William Yeh (Equilibrium) and Evan Schiff (John Wick: Chapter 2 and John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum) and the costume designer is Patricia J. Henderson (The Grudge). The composer is David Buckley (Jason Bourne).

Nobody is the story of a home invasion that propels an underestimated, overlooked man to tap into his most lethal and ruthless instincts to keep his family safe. If that feels like a wish-fulfillment fantasy for tens of millions of fathers, that’s because, in a way, it is. Bob Odenkirk, who is best known for playing Jimmy McGill in Better Call Saul and Breaking Bad, developed the story based on personal experience. “My home has been broken into twice, both times with my wife and kids and myself at home,” Odenkirk says. “The first time was particularly traumatic. As a dad, I felt the right thing to do was…nothing. I believe we made it through with minimum damage, but still, the experience has never left me, and I’ve always wondered if I should have been more proactive.”

Synopsis:
Hutch Mansell, a frustrated father and husband, totally disrespected by his family, just takes the hits, never returning them. He is nothing. One night, when two burglars break into his house, he chooses not to intervene rather than risk a bloody escalation. This decision discredits him in the eyes of his son Blake, and seems to take him even further away from his wife Becca. This incident awakens in this wounded man latent instincts that will propel him on a violent path, revealing shadowy areas and unsuspected lethal skills. In an avalanche of fisticuffs, gunfire, and tire squeals, he will do everything in his power to rescue his family from the clutches of a formidable enemy and ensure that no one ever mistakes him for a nobody again.
