Based on the novel series written by Mark Greaney, The Gray Man follows Court Gentry, aka Sierra Six, a top CIA agent, as assassins hunt him after he discovers dark secrets about the agency. Directed by the Russo brothers, The Gray Man stars Ryan Gosling as Court Gentry, Chris Evans as the psychopathic Lloyd Hansen, Ana de Armas as Dani Miranda, Jessica Henwick as Suzanne Brewer, and Page as Denny Carmichael.
