The official release date for the new spy comedy series ‘Mr. And Mrs. Smith’ is out now. The Prime Video original will be premiering on the platform on February 2nd.
The show is created by Francesca Sloane and Donald Glover and is adapted from the 2005 film of the same name starring Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
The ‘Mr. And Mrs. Smith’ movie was directed by Doug Liman and written by Simon Kinberg and was a huge box office hit. It told the story of a married couple who are not getting along and they both keep huge secrets from each other. Both the husband and wife work as assassins and soon they are given the assignments of killing each other.
The new series will tell the same story in a more detailed manner. There was some controversy too regarding the decision of adapting such a popular show. It will be very difficult to recreate the chemistry that Brad and Angelina had in the movie. Donald Glover stars as John Smith and Maya Erskine plays Jane Smith in the series. There are also other actors like Parker Posey, Wagner Moura, Michaela Coel, John Turturro and Paul Dano.
There will be eight episodes in ‘Mr. And Mrs. Smith’. It was announced earlier that the show would be released in 2023, but it was delayed for the SAG-AFTRA protests.
If you liked the 2005 movie and wished the story to go on with more details, do not miss the show. ‘Mr. And Mrs. Smith’ premieres on Prime Video on the 2nd of February next year.
