Trailer for Chris Hemsworth's Cybercrime Thriller BLACKHAT
With the recent hacking of Sony Pictures, cybercrime has been a hot topic. There's a new movie coming out called Blackhat that puts the focus on how crazy cybercrime can get. The movie was directed by Michael Mann (Public Enemies, Collateral), and it stars Chris Hemsworth in the lead role. This looks like a really great thriller! Mann is good at telling these kinds of stories. As a fan of most of his work, I'm looking forward to seeing this.
Set within the world of global cybercrime, Legendary’s Blackhat follows a furloughed convict and his American and Chinese partners as they hunt a high-level cybercrime network from Chicago to Los Angeles to Hong Kong to Jakarta.
This makes me wonder if Sony has hired a guy like Hemsworth's character to track down and stop the people that put them in this crazy situation. The movie also stars Viola Davis, Tang Wei and Wang Leehom, and it was written by Morgan Davis Foehl and Mann. The movie is set to hit theaters on January 16th, 2015.
