Mary Elizabeth Winstead is the title character in Netflix‘s upcoming action-thriller Kate, a female assassin who has just 24 hours to get vengeance on her murderer before she dies.
Kate will premiere on Netflix September 10, and today the film – rated “R” for “Strong bloody violence”! – has received an official trailer that kicks all kinds of ass… as expected.
A whole lot of movies in recent years have attempted to create mythologies and badass protagonists to rival John Wick, and this one looks to have all the right ingredients!
“Meticulous and preternaturally skilled, Kate is the perfect specimen of a finely tuned assassin at the height of her game. But when she uncharacteristically blows an assignment targeting a member of the yakuza in Tokyo, she quickly discovers she’s been poisoned, a brutally slow execution that gives her less than 24 hours to exact revenge on her killers. As her body swiftly deteriorates, Kate forms an unlikely bond with the teenage daughter of one of her past victims. Kate follows a burned assassin’s furious pursuit of one last self-appointed job.”
Woody Harrelson, Miku Martineau, Tadanobu Asano, Michiel Huisman, and Jun Kunimura also star in Kate, directed by Cedric Nicolas-Troyan (The Huntsman: Winter’s War).
Umair Aleem wrote the script.
