“This is a guy we’ve seen kill a kid, so suddenly he’s saying ‘no’ but there are all these pieces…psychologically these pieces start affecting his head when put together, I believe that a guy like Alejandro can and disobey orders.” “It gives him a conscience for him to make the right moral decision,” the actor says. Unfortunately, a spanner is thrown into the works for him and the task force, led by his long-time associate Matt Graver (Josh Brolin), which leads the assassin on a transformative route that, according to Del Toro, “breaks the shell around his heart.” Gillick’s U-turn concerns the young Mexican daughter of a drug boss ( played brilliantly by Isabela Moner) who is kidnapped by the CIA in order to start a war between her father’s cartel and a rival one. “For me as an actor, that’s impossible for me to do, I don’t believe it.” “He kills a family, and we know that he’s like that because his wife and his daughter were killed in a drug cartel violence, but cut to this movie, he has to do a 180. “Here’s a character that we meet who is a serial killer, he’s a hitman,” the actor tells Yahoo Movies.

He just couldn’t wrap his head around the changing motivations of his character, Alejandro Gillick. This early sceptism wasn’t because he felt that Taylor Sheridan’s follow-up to the critically acclaimed 2015 film was bad, far from it. When Benicio del Toro first read the script for Sicario 2 he was unconvinced. Benicio del Toro stars in Sicario 2: Soldado
