For those that never saw the original 1980s tv show...
It was about a white British government agent (actor Edward Woodward) gone freelance in New York. A 'good samaritan' with a gun.
And now it's about a black American guy? I don't wish to be racist but that's not how the character was intended. And even if he is a black guy in this reboot film, he's supposed to be British. Sheesh.
The trailer has none of the feel/content of the tv show. It's nothing like the show. And it's missing the fantastic theme tune too.

This is the worst example of Hollywood plundering old material. Pathetic.
