First Charlie's Angels Reboot Trailer Delivers A New Team And Lots Of Action
"Good morning Charlie!"
The first trailer for Charlie's Angels is here. The latest movie version of the iconic female crime-fighters stars Kristen Stewart, Naomi Scott, and Ella Balinska, and hits theaters in November.
The trailer introduces the new Angels--Stewart plays highly-trained agent Sabina Wilson, Balinska is former MI6 operative Jane Kano, while Scott is scientist and computer whiz Elena Houghlin. The trio are brought into Charlie Townsend's crime-fighting agency, which is now a global spy network, by Bosley, played by director Elizabeth Banks. Patrick Stewart and Dimjou Hounsou also appear--as other spy bosses using the Bosley alias--and it looks like a great mix of action, intrigue, and wise-cracking comedy. Check it out above.
Charlie's Angels is Banks' second directing credit after 2015's Pitch Perfect 2. The movie isn't actually a remake of either the original '70s TV show or the two movies from the 2000s, but a continuation of the same story. It releases on November 15.
In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Banks spoke about how she approached this latest version of Charlie's Angels. "It was important to me to make a movie about women working together and supporting each other, and not make a movie about their romantic entanglements or their mother they don't call enough," she said. "When I'm at work, I don't talk about those things. I get on with my job. It felt important to do that for the Angels, to treat them with the respect their skill set demands."
