The first trailer is out for McG’s 3 Days to Kill, starring Kevin Costner. Based on the synopsis, it doesn’t sound like the studio even knows if this is supposed to be an action thriller or a comedy. I’m hoping that it’s the former, because the trailer wasn’t all that funny.
This has the feeling of a movie that someone made with Liam Neeson in mind for the lead role, but he was too busy making Taken 12 to read the script.
The film also stars Amber Heard, Hailee Steinfeld, and Connie Nielsen.
3 Days to Kill opens February 21, 2014.
Official synopsis:
In this heart pounding action-thriller, Kevin Costner is a dangerous international spy, who is determined to give up his high stakes life to finally build a closer relationship with his estranged wife and daughter, whom he’s previously kept at arm’s length to keep out of danger. But first, he must complete one last mission- even if it means juggling the two toughest assignments yet: hunting down the world’s most ruthless terrorist and looking after his teenage daughter for the first time in ten years, while his wife is out of town.
