Walking Dead actor stars alongside Clooney & Pitt in action comedy now streaming on AppleTV+
By Renee Hansen
Wolfs is the latest action comedy from superstars George Clooney and Brad Pitt. The film is directed by Jon Watts and stars Austin Abrams, who is remembered for his role as Ron Anderson in AMC's The Walking Dead.
Watts, who is known for his work in the trilogy of Spiderman films in the MCU, wrote and directed Wolfs, a story that follows two fixers, known as lone wolves, who are forced to work together.
Clooney portrays Margaret's Man with Pitt as Pam's Man, and Abrams joins as Kid. Additional cast members include Amy Ryan as Margaret, Poorna Jagannathan as June, Zlatko Burić as Dimitri, Richard Kind as Kid's dad, and Frances McDormand voices Pamela Dowd-Henry.
Despite dressing the same and believing, “There’s nobody who can do who I do,” the fixers continue to protest that they aren't partners even when hired to clean up the same job. Abrams joins the story as the deceased victim the fixers are employed to dispose of, who is discovered to be still alive. This, with a large quantity of drugs, complicates the fixer's jobs.
Wolfs had a limited theatrical release prior to its AppleTV+ debut on September 27. The movie currently has a 68% on Rotten Tomatoes, which states that the star power is there even when the storyline gets a bit clique, "making for a pleasing and slick throwback."
According to Deadline both Clooney and Pitt are slated to return in a sequel to the film.
