Developed for TV by co-creators Jonathan E. Steinberg and Robert Levine, The Old Man is adapted from Thomas Perry’s bestselling 2017 novel of the same name, with Bridges starring as the grizzled ex-CIA agent Dan Chase whose identity is rumbled after a hitman comes calling.
Chase is soon contacted by former FBI acquaintance Harold Harper (Lithgow), who provides him with an ultimatum to keep their dark deeds a secret: vanish immediately and never contact his family again, otherwise his daughter Emily will find herself in danger. As a result, Chase finds himself hunted from all quarters, especially following the eruption of a 30 year old grudge with Afghan leader Faraz Hamzad.
Acting heavyweights Bridges and Lithgow give incredible performances, in addition to Search Party’s Alia Shawkar as Harper’s FBI protégé and E.J. Bonilla (Unforgettable) as CIA Special Agent Raymond Waters. Tensely scripted and more brooding than John Wick, here’s how towatch The Old Man online now with Hulu in the USandDisney Plus elsewhere.
