After some delays, director Guy Ritchie’s (Sherlock, The Gentleman) new action-packed comedy, Operation Fortune: Ruse de guerre, is finally in theaters. The spy-thriller reunites the director with Jason Statham as the titular super spy, as well as an ensemble assortment of characters, from comedy queen Aubrey Plaza, to Hollywood heartthrobs Hugh Grant and Josh Hartnett.
In Operation Fortune: Ruse de guerre, Jason Statham is Orson Fortune, a super spy with a distinct set of skills, who must partner with a highly skilled team of operatives in order to take down Greg Simmonds (played by Grant), a billionaire arms broker whose new weapons technology poses a threat to the world order. As a means to obtain the information they need to take Simmonds down, the team will employ his favorite movie star, Danny Francesco (Hartnett), to take advantage of the proximity Simmonds allows. With the help of his expert team, which also includes Cary Elwes and Bugzy Malone, Fortune blackmails the actor into aiding their mission to track down the dealer. High stakes, fast cars, killers on a yacht, and lots and lots of weapons - what could go wrong?
Before Operation Fortune: Ruse de guerre’s theatrical release, Collider’s Steve Weintraub spoke with Grant and Hartnett about their time on set. During their interview, the pair discusses why “working commando” with Guy Ritchie was “alarming,” charming spinoff ideas, working with 10 different Aubrey Plaza’s, and “marinating” in characters and scenes.
