The trailer opens to two reunited ex-lovers and former colleagues Henry and Celia recalling the events that led to their breakup. The purpose of the meeting is to find out who amongst them double-crossed their agency years ago. The conversation flashes back to the disastrous hijacking of Royal Jordanian Flight 127 that killed everyone on board, one of the biggest failures of the CIA. Seemingly from the trailer, a world of espionage, thrill and betrayal is staring back at us.
Chris Pine will be seen next in another action thriller The Contractor, Don’t Worry Darling directed by Olivia Wilde, live action fantasy adaptation of Dungeons & Dragons and also his directorial debut Poolman. While Newton will be seen reprising her role as Maeve in HBO’s sci-fi drama Westworld. She is also set to be seen in the third installment to Channing Tatum’s blockbuster franchise Magic Mike’s Last Dance for HBO Max.
