Salma Hayek and director Joe Lynch (Knights of Badassdom) hit Comic-Con today to show off footage from their upcoming film Everly, the tale of a woman who must fend off assassins sent after her by her ex, who happens to be a crime boss.
The RADiUS/Weinstein Company film -- these are the guys who just recently brought us the great Snowpiercer -- features a ton of gun play and gore, if the sizzle reel that was shown is any indication. Lynch called it “Die Hard in a room,” as the bulk of the film takes place entirely in Everly’s apartment as she faces killer after killer after killer.
The reel started with Hayek in a negligée, bleeding from the gut and talking to someone on the phone… her ex? He tells her she just killed nine men, and then we cut to a few minutes earlier as Everly does just that -- she takes out every yakuza assassin in the room with full Technicolor blood flow. Next we see her pulling a bag of cash out from under the floorboards, calling her mom to tell her she needs to get her to safety. But when she tries to leave the apartment, more assassins pour in, and so attack after fight after murder after kill kicks in in quick succession. A hand grenade thrown into an elevator of yakuza? Sure. A rocket launcher incinerating the apartment? Yep. Salma Hayek fighting with a sai? Why not?
