The Old Guard is a 2020 Netflix movie starring Charlize Theron as the leader of an immortal band of warriors. Combining elements of the popular Highlander franchise with the modern John Wick sensibility, the film presents a new take on the fantasy of humans that don't age and can't be killed. In a nod to the characters' extreme age (the main characters are all at least several hundred years old, with Charlize Theron's character identifying herself as a "Scythian," referencing an empire from the 8th century BCE), they use quasi-historical weapons as well as contemporary firearms.
