When the first Atomic Blonde trailer hit the web, I saw a lot of comparisons to James Bond. And that makes sense - our main character is a highly-talented spy on a dangerous mission - but the new trailer emphasizes the film's John Wick DNA, courtesy of director David Leitch. Take a look:

Reminder: do not mess with Charlize Theron.

I don't know about you, but this movie was not on my radar at all until the first trailer - but even then, it looked a bit too dour and grumpy for my tastes. This new trailer turns the action up with some truly brilliant fight choreography and even a little bit of humor. I've gone from "What's an Atomic Blonde" to "meh" to "I am so onboard."
