I liked this book and so far I don't like the casting of both leads.

 

[Fallen Angel]

I've not read the book so I'll take your word for it Kv. Also is it me or does this sound quite similar plot wise to the Cotillard/Pitt Allied film?

 

[Rocketman]

I wonder if J-Law even understands the script for this movie. Or maybe she's Wikipedia'ing Russian and CIA espionage in between selfies with Amy Schumer.

Are you saying that she's a stupid person?

Not at all. Why?

Jeremy Irons and Matthias Schoenaerts join Jennifer Lawrence's spy thriller 'Red Sparrow' http://bit.ly/2g7qWdc

Jeremy Irons and Matthias Schoenaerts have joined Jennifer Lawrence and Joel Edgerton in Fox’s spy thriller “Red Sparrow.”


Francis Lawrence, who helmed the final three films in the “Hunger Games” franchise, is re-teaming with Jennifer Lawrence for his latest directional effort. Fox has already dated “Red Sparrow” for Nov. 10, 2017.

The story, an adaptation of the Jason Matthews espionage novel, follows a Russian intelligence officer (Lawrence) who is ordered against her will to become a "Sparrow," a trained seductress, and to operate against a young CIA agent who handles the agency’s most important Russian mole.

Matthias Schoenaerts, Jeremy Irons and Joel Edgerton also stars.

There is a scene involving a hairbrush. Lawd.

 

[kvz5]

I mean no disrespect to JLaw and Edgerton but I just can't see her and him as Dominika and Nate especially the latter. I mean Nate is supposed to be a youngin'... LOL I'm laughing just imagining her in the hairbrush scene. I'm pretty sure that won't make it on screen. Heck, maybe even some the training scenes won't make it on screen. I'm guessing Irons will be her uncle or her mentor that turned out to be a [blackout]double agent like her[/blackout]. Not sure who Matthias Schoenaerts is playing... He's probably a bit better suited for Nate than Edgerton. *shrugs* The lead character also has synesthesia but I'm not seeing it in the synopsis so far so I wonder if that's out as well.

Just finished the book and was not particularly impressed with it.

I hope the movie makes it work better.

The R- rated Black Widow film that will never happen.

 

[CB Fan]

First Lawrence film I've really been interested to see in a while but I am a sucker for these types of films.

 

[Schlosser85]

I'd rather have seen this with Theron than Lawrence.

 

[Micromind]

Will this be another Atomic Blonde ?

 

[kvz5]

She's not my first choice but this is one of those times that Lawrence is of the right age for the character.

Trailer looks good but as much as I like Edgerton, I still would've preferred someone younger.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

I was looking forward to this trailer but it didn't grab me.

 

[dark_b]

again an over-sexulized female agent movie? ohhh she uses sex ? I understand that they are only producing this kind of movies because they think thats the only way to get men to watch it. but come on its 2017.
