Washington and Ryan Reynolds star in the action-thriller Safe House. Washington
plays the most dangerous renegade from the CIA, who comes back onto the grid
after a decade on the run. When the South African safe house he's remanded to is
attacked by mercenaries, a rookie operative (Reynolds) escapes with him. Now,
the unlikely allies must stay alive long enough to uncover who wants them dead.
