The title of this movie was enough for me to already plan my expedition to go see this when it comes out, but the Gunpowder Milkshake trailer has added to that anticipation after being posted online yesterday. Take my money. Now.
The film is directed by Navot Papushado, the filmmaker behind Big Bad Wolves from a couple of years ago, and will be release in cinemas later this year.
Here’s the official synopsis:
Sam (Karen Gillan) was only 12 years old when her mother Scarlet (Lena Headey), an elite assassin, was forced to abandon her. Sam was raised by The Firm, the ruthless crime syndicate her mother worked for. Now, 15 years later, Sam has followed in her mother’s footsteps and grown into a fierce hit-woman. She uses her “talents” to clean up The Firm’s most dangerous messes. She’s as efficient as she is loyal. But when a high-risk job goes wrong, Sam must choose between serving The Firm and protecting the life of an innocent 8-year-old girl – Emily (Chloe Coleman). With a target on her back, Sam has only one chance to survive: Reunite with her mother and her lethal associates: The Librarians (Angela Bassett, Michelle Yeoh and Carla Gugino). These three generations of women must now learn to trust each other, stand up to The Firm and their army of henchmen, and raise hell against those who could take everything from them.
Gunpowder MIlkshake is set to screen this summer with Studiocanal having rights for the UK and Netflix in the states where it is set to be release in July.
Here’s the trailer.
