Those Who Wish Me Dead trailer: Angelina Jolie’s action thriller promises to be a gripping affair
Angelina Jolie’s latest is Those Who Wish Me Dead, a neo-wester action thriller in which she takes charge of a kid who is being hunted by deadly assassins who have already killed his father and almost killed him.
Jolie’s Hannah is a smokejumper (firefighters who work to stop wildfires) who comes across Connor (Finn Little), a child who is on the run from two assassins who want him dead.
The film looks absolutely gripping and Jolie’s return to form. Jolie, who has been in precious few films as an actor in the last few years, looks right at home here, and at least judging by the trailer, it appears she has subsumed herself into the role.
Taylor Sheridan, who has co-written and directed this film, also wrote Hell or High Water, 2016’s acclaimed neo-western. He received an Oscar nomination for the film.
