The film
Fast Charlie, based on the novel
Gun Monkeys by Victor Gischler, is now in theaters and on demand. Charlie Swift, known as “Fast Charlie (Pierce Brosnan),” is a fixer, but he’s got a problem. The new guy blew the head off the target he killed, so it’s up to Charlie to take care of it and prove his identity to the person who called in the hit, New Orleans’ mobster, Beggar Mercado (Gbenga Akinnagbe). Charlie turns to the victim’s ex-wife, Marcie Kramer (Morena Baccarin), who’s willing to help him out of the bind. Unfortunately, things don’t go to plan, dragging Marcie back into the past she had left behind, as they fight to bring down Mercado, all while protecting the legacy of Charlie’s mentor, Stan Mullen (James Caan).
Star Baccarin recently spoke with SciFi Vision about her work on
Fast Charlie, as well as whether she’d be willing to return to cult favorite
Firefly, a bit about the upcoming
Deadpool 3, what kind of roles she looks for, and much more.
