Jennifer Lawrence's RED SPARROW - Footage Reaction Video - CinemaCon 2017
During our final day at CinemaCon we got to see some of the first footage from Jennifer Lawrence's upcoming Russain assassin/spy thriller Red Sparrow. The film is based on the novel written by Jason Matthews and it seriously looks like it's going to be a great movie. We talk about the footage that we saw in the reaction video above. For more information on what the story is about, here's a description from the book:
In present-day Russia, ruled by blue-eyed, unblinking President Vladimir Putin, Russian intelligence officer Dominika Egorova struggles to survive in the post-Soviet intelligence jungle. Ordered against her will to become a “Sparrow,” a trained seductress, Dominika is assigned to operate against Nathaniel Nash, a young CIA officer who handles the Agency’s most important Russian mole.
Spies have long relied on the “honey trap,” whereby vulnerable men and women are intimately compromised. Dominika learns these techniques of “sexpionage” in Russia’s secret “Sparrow School,” hidden outside of Moscow. As the action careens between Russia, Finland, Greece, Italy, and the United States, Dominika and Nate soon collide in a duel of wills, tradecraft, and—inevitably—forbidden passion that threatens not just their lives but those of others as well. As secret allegiances are made and broken, Dominika and Nate’s game reaches a deadly crossroads. Soon one of them begins a dangerous double existence in a life-and-death operation that consumes intelligence agencies from Moscow to Washington, DC.
The movie is set to be released on November 10th.
