"I chose this life, and someday it's going to get me killed. But not today." Universal has debuted a second official trailer for the action movie Atomic Blonde, which looks totally awesome. The comparisons to John Wick do seem accurate, but this also seems like it might have something unique to offer being set in Berlin. Atomic Blonde stars Charlize Theron as an undercover MI6 agent (and/or assassin) sent to Berlin during the Cold War to investigate the murder of a fellow agent. This is directed by David Leitch, a stuntman who worked on co-directing John Wick (before he was uncredited) and he's directing Deadpool 2 next. The full cast includes Bill Skarsgård, Sofia Boutella, James McAvoy, John Goodman, Toby Jones, Eddie Marsan, James Faulkner, and Roland Møller. I dig the action in this trailer, very excited to watch this.
Here's the second official trailer for David Leitch's Atomic Blonde, direct from Universal's YouTube:
And here's an alternate international trailer for David Leitch's Atomic Blonde, also from YouTube:
You can still watch the first red band trailer for Atomic Blonde here, for even more footage from this.
An undercover MI6 agent (Charlize Theron) is sent to Berlin during the Cold War to investigate the murder of a fellow agent and help recover a missing list of double agents. Atomic Blonde is directed by filmmaker David Leitch, a former stuntman making his feature film debut with this film after working on John Wick initially. Leitch is already in the middle of directing Deadpool 2, too. The screenplay is written by Kurt Johnstad (300, Act of Valor, 300: Rise of an Empire), based on the Oni Press graphic novel series written by Antony Johnston and illustrated by Sam Hart. This first premiered at the SXSW Film Festival last month. Focus Features will release Atomic Blonde in theaters starting on July 28th this summer. Who's in?

Hum...lesbian scene...I suppose it's something vital for the plot, isn"t it.

A female Jason Bourne! Looks fun the watch, but I always have doubts when a 60 kg girl knocking the lights out of 100 kg guy...

And then finishes her job by strangling him with her thong... ;D Yep, quite laughable.

Yeah you're right because you know when John McLane beats up all the baddies or John Wick shoots all of them that's 100% believable that those actors can do that but as soon as it's a female no one can suspend their disbelief. It's a fricking movie and she's obviously playing a very well trained fighter in it.

Lol it's almost like it's a girl and a guys name. I always think of it as a girls name but of course I would.

Yep. Until I'll see females and males compete against each other in combat sport, I'll continue to believe it.

believe what?

I'll believe that a 5' woman who weights 100 pounds can beat a 200 pounds 6' man. Ok, I'll make it easier: If she can beat a 5' 100 pounds man.

Okay then well I'll believe the John Wick movie when I see a guy actually manage to kill that many people while running around and moving and they only barely get a shot off at him and it's all cleaned up by a magical underground group..... That is how ridiculous you sound. It's a movie. It's not real life. Are woman not allowed to have fun action movies where they kick ass. I'm sorry I didn't realise those kind of fantasies and daydreams are reserved only for guys.

Well, a girl can kill as many guys as she wants. Just not make her kill them with her fists or her thong. Or is it still hard for you to understand that?

She can kill as many guys she wants with her fist or her thong or her stilettos. It's still only a movie. Is it still hard for you to understand that

not yours either, we'll just have to agree to disagree

If body size matters, how does Tom Cruise beat anyone, ever?

LOL. Exactly.

Size never matters. Or so say women. I know they are lying to us. On a more serious note, a man is physically stronger than a woman. End of the story.

Nice to see her clearly doing most of the choreography without a double. Still not sure who this is for.

Me this is for people like me. Cannot wait for this movie. I've been waiting for a movie like this my whole life. Hopefully it lives up to how awesome it looks

Apparently La Femme Nikita and Femme Fatale had a baby and it's this movie. But it's got Charlize Theron in it? Is that how it's different?.....

At least Nikita was a damaged girl who wasn't into killing dudes. this version is very "SALTy. It will work for people who like watching sexy girls doing flip flap.

Nikita had character growth and plot because it was French. This will have more stunts and effects because it is Hollywood.

That's a bold statement regarding French cinema. However....you're not wrong...
RAW_D on Apr 11, 2017

To be fair, not every French movie is worth a watch. Many of them are awful. Did you watch "La gloire de mon père"? What a wonderful movie. I can watch it on loop.
tarek on Apr 12, 2017

Thank you Tarek, for being honest about French cinema. I've not seen "La gloire de mon père". I'll put it on my list of things to watch. For me (and I know this is semi-cliche) but "Amélie"is one of my favorites.

And it should be on any must watch list. I love J.P Jeunet & Marc Caro movies. They are not just movies, they are pieces of art. I suggest you the delightful Delicatessen if you didn't have the chance to watch it.
tarek on Apr 12, 2017

Delicatessen was NUTS! Also have a fondness for City of Lost Children as well.

I wonder if sexy raunchy debauchery with her would make less money than this. Probably. I guess she's showing some attitude here while kicking and killing, right? To many, this obviously looks more sexy than sex itself. What a business, man ...

Damn looks fun!

I just wish that people would finally learn how to pronounce her name! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3TTi_gAS5c
