Samuel L Jackson Joining Rko Pictures’ Barely Lethal

Samuel L. Jackson Gets Some Barely Lethal Action with Hailee Steinfeld
16 May 2013 2:37 PM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
Samuel L. Jackson, already on the hook to mentor a teenage girl killer in an upcoming live-action adaptation of the Japanese anime “Kite”, will be mentoring another teenage girl killer in the Brett Ratner-produced “Barely Lethal”. “Lethal” will star “True Grit’s” Hailee Steinfeld as “a 16-year-old international assassin yearning for a “normal” adolescence who fakes her own death and enrolls as a senior in a suburban high school.” She discovers, much to her chagrin, that the hallways of high school is just as dangerous (if not more so) than being an international assassin. It’s all hyperbole, of course, but then again, so are 16-year old international assassins. Jackson will play Steinfeld’s mentor in the film, a role that sounds remarkably like the one he’s playing in “Kite”, where he mentors another teenage killer looking to avenge her father’s murder. “Kite” was supposed to have »

Samuel L. Jackson Will Train Teens to Kill in Barely Lethal
16 May 2013 11:15 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
It seems like the only movies we've seen Samuel L. Jackson in over the last few years have been Marvel movies. Well, he's now going to use those S.H.I.E.L.D. skills to train teenagers how to be assassins in his next film Barely Lethal.
Hailee Steinfeld (True Grit) is set to play a 16-year-old international assassin named Megan who is raised at a boarding school that trains kids to be assassins. She has a quirky sense of humor but is clueless about normal life. She ends up faking her own death and enrolls as a senior in a suburban high school, where she discovers dealing with popularity is just as hard as living life as an assassin. Jackson will play her mentor who trains her in the program.
Kyle Newman (Fanboys) is directing the film from a script written by John D’Arco. This sounds like a fun concept, and I hope it turns out good. »
