The marketing for this movie played up the angle of "this rogue doesn't play by the rules," like that was some new and exciting trope. But it had already been done a million times.

Where does it say it was new or exciting?

It's the sort of tag line most movies of this type use.

It's the way it was presented, like "this guy is different."

But characters like this in these kind of movies never play by the rules, so I still dont get why you say the tag line suggests not playing by the rules is different.
