The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard

Star Salma Hayek was shocked when she was asked to reprise in this sequel her small supporting part of Sonia Kincaid from The Hitman's Bodyguard (2017). She said: "Quite frankly, I was shocked. I've been in so many movies where we get the call, 'Oh my God, you're one of the most liked characters in the film'. For the first time, there was a director that said, 'I'm gonna listen to the audience'. But I didn't trust him. At the beginning, I said, 'Oh, he's just exaggerating. He's just being nice'. But then when we started talking about it, he told me the story-line and then I realized, 'oh, my God, this guy is not just for real, but he also wants me involved in the process."

When Kincaid is using his binoculars in Florence he notices the glare from Zento's telescopic sights, and manages to avoid being shot. However, the front side of the building where Zento is hiding is in shade, so there would have been no glare from the lens.

There is one mid credit scene that takes place and a final placeholder "dedicated to..." card during the final moments.

As was the case with their release of Rambo: Last Blood (2019), Lionsgate cut this film down from its original running time to have more screenings in the US. Some countries like Australia and some Asian territories have a longer 116 minute version which they are screening theatrically.
