Ben Kingsley Plays an Aging Spy in Trailer For a New Thriller Called SPIDER IN THE WEB
The first trailer has been released for a new movie called Spider in the Web, which stars Ben Kingsley as an aging spy who is past his prime. The story follows him on one final mission to clear his name of being suspected of fabricating intelligence. As you might imagine, a film like this is going to be filled with twists and turns as the story unfolds.
Here’s the synopsis that was released:
Adereth (Sir Ben Kinsgley), a once-lauded but aging field agent of the Israeli Mossad, is deemed past his prime by his superiors. Convinced that he’s been fabricating intelligence to maintain his relevance, they send a young operative, Daniel (Itay Tiran), to ensure that Adereth does not deviate from his mission to deliver crucial information he claims is waiting for him regarding a chemical weapons sale to a Middle Eastern dictatorship. That tip leads to the enigmatic Angela (Monica Bellucci), who is a target. A lover. An enemy. All? Neither? As the lines of trust are blurred, Adereth realizes the hunter may become the hunted in a world of mirrors and deceit.
If you enjoy spy thrillers and/or you’re a fan of Ben Kingsley, this seems like a film that is worth checking out. The movie also stars Itay Tiran as “the young operative sent to monitor his activity”, and Monica Bellucci.
The film will get a limited theatrical release in New York and Los Angeles, on Friday, August 30th, as well as on VOD platforms.
