Watch Salma Hayek Kick Ass In This ‘Everly’ Trailer!
It was recently announced that Radius-TWC would release Everly – from Wrong Turn 2 and Knights of Badassdom director Joe Lynch – on iTunes and On Demand January 23, 2015 and in limited theaters February 27, 2015.
This weekend a trailer was discovered online (with an official trailer coming soon) that takes you inside the tale of a woman (played by Salma Hayek) who is forced to take arms against a sea of assassins dispatched by her mob boss ex-husband. Watch as Hayek shoots a billion yakuza, and then tosses a granade into an elevator filled with them. BOOM!
Togo Igawa, Masashi Fujimoto and Hiroyuki Watanabe round out the key cast.
“It’s Christmas time, but all is not well in the world of Everly (Salma Hayek). A call girl by trade, Everly has turned against her gangster boss Taiko (Hiroyuki Watanabe) and become a police informant. In response, Taiko has put out a hit on Everly and her family. Soon, every criminal in town wants to cash in. Everly’s survival instincts quickly kick in as she matches wits and firepower with Taiko and a seemingly endless stream of killers.”
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
