She also stated that the fight scenes are definitely more badass than what she had shared.
The movie stars Oscar-nominated actress Jessica Chastain, Penelope Cruz, Diane Kruger and Lupita.
Universal Pictures describes the movie as a dream team of formidable female stars coming together in a hard-driving original approach to the globe-trotting espionage genre.
When a top-secret weapon falls into mercenary hands, wild card CIA agent Mason “Mace” Brown (Jessica Chastain) will need to join forces with rival badass German agent Marie (Diane Kruger), former MI6 ally and cutting-edge computer specialist Khadijah (Lupita Nyong’o), and skilled Colombian psychologist Graciela (Penélope Cruz) on a lethal, breakneck mission to retrieve it, while also staying one step ahead of a mysterious woman, Lin Mi Sheng (Bingbing Fan), who is tracking their every move.
