Just weeks ahead of its launch date, Netflix has just released a trailer for the action film Close. Described as an adrenaline-pumping action thriller, Close is written and directed by Vicky Jewson (Born of War, Lady Godiva), and took its inspiration from the life of the world’s leading female bodyguard, Jacquie Davis. You can check out the trailer in the post below!
The film stars Noomi Rapace (Alien Covenant, Bright) as Sam, a counter-terrorist expert used to war zones, who takes on the job of protecting Zoe, played by Sophie Nélisse (The Book Thief), a young and rich heiress who’s instructed to take a more active role in her late father’s company. While Sam sees as nothing more than glorified babysitting, after a violent attempt at kidnapping, the two are forced to go on the run. Now they’ve got to take some lives — or lose theirs.
