Until now we’ve only had a poster to give us a vague idea of the tone that Atomic Blonde will be going for.
To date there are few Hollywood films in which an action packed, high intensity plot features a badass female lead.
And while Oscar-winning actress Charlize Theron has a diverse list of roles she’s played – many of which involve high stakes action or fantasy – in this summer’s Atomic Blonde, she’ll play an undercover agent with no shortage of butt kicking ability.
Theron purchased the rights to the Antony Johnston graphic novel The Coldest City five years ago and the story has since been adapted as Atomic Blonde, with her in the lead as British MI6 spy Lorraine Broughton.
