Writer-director Jon Watts’ Wolfs, featuring George Clooney and Brad Pitt as unnamed professional fixers, has lots of twists and turns and a largely ambiguous ending. Accordingly, the viewers are likely to finish watching the movie and have a few questions, including who hires the fixers and why and whether these fixers die by the end of the movie.
Here is everything you need to know about the ending of Wolfs.
Who hired George Clooney and Brad Pitt’s fixers in Wolfs?
In Wolfs, Clooney and Pitt portray solitary veteran professional fixers whose names are never revealed. After a kid seemingly dies in a hotel room booked by the Manhattan District Attorney Margaret, she calls in Clooney’s fixer, having gotten his number from a man she immensely trusts. Meanwhile, Pam, the hotel owner, calls Brad Pitt’s fixer.
When their clients urge them to work together, the fixers initially refuse. Margaret tells the fixer something that the man who gave the fixer’s number said, “You take a job, you give your word and that word’s the measure of a man” and ultimately convinces him to stay. Pam also convinces her fixer to stay and collaborate with Margaret’s fixer.
The final scene of the movie takes place at a diner. After Pitt’s fixer reveals that Pam told him, “You take a job, you give your word and that word’s the measure of a man,” convincing him to work with the other man, Clooney’s fixer realizes that they had been hired by the same individual.
Before calling Clooney’s character, Margaret thought of reaching out to her father and a Senator named Ziegler. Given what the circumstances were, it’s likely she trusted Senator Ziegler as much as her father. The latter will probably not want to put his daughter in the middle of all this mess, so Senator Ziegler can potentially be the one who orchestrated everything.
Why were George Clooney and Brad Pitt’s fixers hired in Wolfs?
The movie doesn’t reveal the identity of the person who hired the fixers, but they deduce that this individual wants them dead.
Thus, he is a former client of both of them and now wishes to kill them to permanently cover up his past indiscretions.
Did George Clooney and Brad Pitt’s fixers die at the end of Wolfs?
The fixers find out the truth and realize that the dinner they are in is surrounded. They decide they will not go out quietly and prepare for a fight. Although the movie doesn’t reveal whether they will survive, a sequel to Wolfs’ has been greenlit. So, the chances are that they will.
