Netflix ‘Gunpowder Milkshake’ Trailer Shows Karen Gillan & Lena Headey as Deadly Assassins

Studiocanal has revealed the first trailer for the female-led assassin thriller ‘Gunpowder Milkshake.’ Starring Karen Gillan and Lena Headey as deadly mother-daughter duo, the action-packed film will arrive in theaters and Netflix in the U.S. on July 14.

Sam (KAREN GILLAN) was only 12 years old when her mother Scarlet (LENA HEADEY), an elite assassin, was forced to abandon her. Sam was raised by The Firm, the ruthless crime syndicate her mother worked for. Now, 15 years later, Sam has followed in her mother’s footsteps and grown into a fierce hit-woman. But when a high-risk job goes wrong, Sam must choose between serving The Firm and protecting the life of an innocent 8-year-old girl - Emily (CHLOE COLEMAN). With a target on her back, Sam has only one chance to survive: Reunite with her mother and her lethal associates, The Librarians (MICHELLE YEOH, ANGELA BASSETT, and CARLA GUGINO). These three generations of women must now learn to trust each other, stand up to The Firm and their army of henchmen, and raise hell against those who could take everything from them.

The female-led cast also features Angela Bassett, Michelle Yeoh, Carla Gugino, and Chloe Coleman, along with Paul Giamatti.  The film is directed by Navot Papushado, who has also written the script with Ehud Lavski.

The film hits Netflix in the U.S. on July 14, STX has Canada, Latin America, and Chinese distribution rights, while Studiocanal will release in the UK, France, Germany and Australia, and New Zealand. Producers are Studiocanal and The Picture Company.
