On Monday, Vin Diesel marked the first day of filming for Bloodshot by posting an Instagram video from a movie set in Africa.
Bloodshot follows a soldier named Ray Garrison (Diesel) who is injected with nanites after getting mortally wounded in battle. These micro-machines give him the ability to regenerate from any wound, as well as the white skin and blood-red eyes that earn him his superhero moniker. In the film, Bloodshot will put his abilities to use by rounding up young superhero outcasts known as "Harbingers." Bloodshot is based on the Valiant Entertainment superhero originally created by Kevin Van Hook, Don Perlin, and Bob Layton in 1992.
Following the recent success of R-rated superhero movies like Logan and Deadpool, Sony will be pushing for an R-rating for Bloodshot, who is a violent superhero. The film is directed by Dave Wilson.
Bloodshot is planned for release on February 21, 2020.
