Watch: Salma Hayek Shoots ‘Em Up In Female Actioner ‘Everly’

Looking for something to take your mind off the festive excess? How about Salma Hayek blowing away everything that moves in a bloody new trailer for upcoming action flick EVERLY? If that doesn’t defrost your turkey nothing will.

Of course it might be a bit too progressive for the industry to have Hayek as a gun toting career woman, so here she plays a prostitute forced to go on the offensive when assassins threaten her attempts at a new life. Check out the result below if you like your mayhem served with an extra helping of whup-ass…

Hayek’s action credentials are already pretty solid due to her involvement with Robert Rodriguez’s MEXICO TRILOGY, which began with EL MARIACHI. She’s seen as the female contingent of the over-40s movement headed towards action movies, typified by Liam Neeson in the TAKEN franchise. Directed by Joe Lynch and reportedly inspired by DIE HARD and Asian skull cracking fests, EVERLY metes it out at the box office in February via Dimension Films.
