Director Robert Rodriguez‘s latest film, Machete Kills is back in the headlines with a new international trailer prior to the film’s September 13, 2013 release, featuring Danny Trejo reprising his role as a rogue ex-federale. Trejo’s portrayal in a what was once released as a brilliant trailer for the 2007 Grindhouse Double Feature: Planet Terror and Death Proof, became an instant contemporary cult-classic among comic-con attendees and film buffs, accompanied by a major consensus for a feature film to be made.
Rounding off the cast are Sofia Vergara, Amber Heard, music sensation Lady Gaga, actor Antonio Banderas, Demián Bichir, Alexa Vega, Vanessa Hudgens, Cuba Gooding, Jr., William Sadler, Chilèan martial arts performer and action star Marko Zaror, in addition to actor Mel Gibson, and introducing Carlos Estevez, billed in the film with his original name for the first time since he began his acting career in 1984 as Charlie Sheen.
Trejo returns as ex-Federale agent Machete, who is recruited by the President of the United States for a mission which would be impossible for any mortal man – he must take down a madman revolutionary and an eccentric billionaire arms dealer who has hatched a plan to spread war and anarchy across the planet.
