AceShowbiz - Melissa McCarthy goes from one of the Bridesmaids to a spy in her new movie. The comedienne channels her inner James Bond in the first trailer for "Spy" which arrives in two versions, a green band and a red band one.
In the film written and directed by Paul Feig ("Bridesmaids", "The Heat"), McCarthy plays Susan Cooper, an unassuming, deskbound CIA analyst and the unsung hero behind the Agency's most dangerous missions, who dreams of becoming a field agent.
When her partner falls off the grid and another top agent is compromised, she volunteers to go deep undercover to infiltrate the world of a deadly arms dealer, and prevent a global disaster.
With the new role, Susan gets a new ID and faces uneasy challenges as she's seen having a trouble riding a scooter. She shows her fierce side when arguing with a guy on the street and getting into a fight, and breaks the rule by making a contact with a target played by Rose Byrne.
In a scene rarely seen in any other action movies, Jude Law who plays a CIA agent ruins a mission when he sneezes and accidentally kills a man.
Also supported by Jason Statham, Bobby Cannavale, Morena Baccarin, 50 Cent and Allison Janney among others, the action comedy film will hit theaters across the nation on May 22.
