Milla Jovovich Leads The Order of the Phantom Knighthood in Bonkers Trailer For THE ROOKIES
Shout! Studios has released a wild trailer for a new Milla Jovovich action thriller titled The Rookies. This looks like a strange movie and it’s described as an “exhilarating, high-tech action epic” about an “extreme sport enthusiast who joins an elite group of special agents after accidentally getting involved in an illegal trade deal.”
The movie comes from writer and director Alan Yuen (Firestorm, New Police Story) and it also stars Sandrine Pinna (Touch of Light) and Talu Wang (The Last Wish). Here’s the synopsis:
Daredevil and extreme sport lover Zhao Feng (Wang) has always lived life on the edge. But when he gets caught up in an illegal trade scheme, he realized he is in way over his head. When he crosses paths with deadly and mysterious Special Agent Bruce (Jovovich), she recruits him into the shadowy Order of the Phantom Knighthood, which is dedicated to fighting evil in all its manifestations. Fleshed out by a scrappy police officer, a scientist and an unemployed doctor, this ragtag outfit becomes the Order’s newest and most unlikely crime-fighting unit. Led by Agent Bruce, these four rookies are charged with defeating die-hard terrorists in this action-packed adventure.
As you’ll see, the movie is going to be filled with bonkers over-the-top action that is done on the cheap. Then for some reason, Jovovich is using a gritty whispering voice for her character. The whole thing looks silly, but it’s the kind of silly some people will enjoy. Check out the trailer to see what I’m talking about.
The Rookies will be released in select theaters and On Demand Everywhere on April 16.
