IGN’s exclusive on Wednesday brought us the first trailer and poster for Netflix action thriller, Interceptor, and lo and behold, it’s got Elsa Pataky at the wheel for her own action vehicle after getting some chops in a few of the Fast And Furious installments. She stars in Matthew Reilly’s feature directing debut which will hit the streamer on June 3.
The tough and reality-bruised Captain JJ Collins (Elsa Pataky) finds herself in charge of a lone nuclear missile interceptor base in the middle of the Pacific Ocean after she is wrongfully drummed out of her dream job at the Pentagon. When a simultaneous coordinated attack then threatens the base itself, Collins comes face-to-face with the charismatic yet crooked Alexander Kessel (Luke Bracey), a former US military intelligence officer intent on carrying out an unthinkable plan. With only minutes on the clock, Collins must utilize her years of tactical training and military expertise to determine who she can trust and stop Kessel and his covert mercenaries from completing their twisted and terrible mission.
Reilly also penned the script with Stuart Beattie who produced the pic with Michael Boughen, Matthew Street. Chris Hemsworth, Christopher Mapp, Robert Slaviero, Kathy Morgan and Peter D. Graves are exec producers.
The film also stars Aaron Glenane, Mayen Mehta, Rhys Muldoon, Belinda Jombwe, Marcus Johnson, Colin Friels and Zoe Carides.
