To Entertainment Weekly, the director/writer/star of the actioner provided further info about the characters Willis and Schwarzenegger take on among others. Confirming that the scene takes place in a church, Sly revealed that Willis portrays the one who hires his mercenary group for the death-defying mission, while Schwarzenegger stars as his character’s old rival.

Describing the scene in more detail, Sly gushed, “Bruce says: Well, there’s one other person I want to talk to before I hire you. And then Arnold, who plays my old rival, walks in.”
