Lionsgate has released an intense trailer for drug trafficking drama "Sicario". The approximate two-and-a-half minute clip sees Emily Blunt's Kate Macy getting caught up in a drug war while she's traveling to a lawless border area between the U.S. and Mexico to track down a major Mexican cartel boss.
The trailer opens with Kate being recruited to track down the cartel boss. "State department has pulled in an agent specializes in responding the escalating cartel activity," says a man to which Kate replies, "This is not my department." The scene then shows Kate and other FBI agents barging in a house and having gun war.
Kate is then joined by Alejandro (Benicio del Toro) and Matt (Josh Brolin) to travel to a lawless border between the United States and Mexico. "In Mexico, 'sicario' means hitman," a message appears on the screen amid ominous music before the scene shows the gun war between FBI and drug traffickers.
Dennis Villeneuve ("Prisoners") directed "Sicario" with a script by Taylor Sheridan ("Sons of Anarchy"). The crime-drama flick premiered at Cannes Film Festival back in May and is set for a limited release in the U.S. on September 18 before a wide release on September 25.
