*Michael Jai White is back as Bryant Powell in the official trailer for “As Good as Dead 2.” The action sequel arrives Dec. 11 in theaters, on digital and on demand.
White, the martial artist and actor, wrote the script and plays DEA Agent Bryant Powell. Academy Award nominee Tom Berenger returns as Sonny Kilbane, Powell’s enemy from the first film. Ronnie Gene Blevins and Guillermo Iván round out the main cast. Marc Clebanoff directs.
According to the official synopsis, Kilbane sends assassins after Powell in Mexico, and they fail. Kilbane’s former deep state partners then mark him for death. Powell has to break his old enemy out of prison and move him to safety so he can testify. Assassins pursue the pair on both sides of the border.
The new movie follows the 2022 film “As Good as Dead,” which White also wrote. R. Ellis Frazier directed that movie, which opened on Dec. 16, 2022, in theaters, on VOD and on digital. The sequel lands almost exactly four years later.
