‘Atomic Blonde’ New Trailer Is Literally Just Charlize Theron Kicking Ass for 2 Minutes (Video)
The new restricted trailer for Focus Features’ “Atomic Blonde” is literally just Charlize Theron kicking ass for two minutes.
In the trailer for the film formerly titled “The Coldest City,” Theron’s character fights her way past dangerous people equally as skilled in combat. There’s lots of sex, brutality and cussing in the trailer, as it becomes clear Theron will take no guff from anyone.
“Coldest City” follows an underground MI6 officer who is killed just before the fall of the Berlin Wall. Theron plays a spy who must find a list of other spies that he was smuggling into the West to protect herself and the counter-intelligence community.
James McAvoy and Sofia Boutella also star — Theron has a steamy encounter with the latter in the trailer.
David Leitch (“John Wick”) is directing from a script by Kurt Johnstad (“300”), who adapted the Oni Press graphic novel by Antony Johnston.
Theron is producing through her Denver and Delilah Productions banner along with Oni Press and Sierra Pictures.
