Gina Carano
Steven Soderbergh might be the most interesting director working today. His last film, The Girlfriend Experience, cast pornstar Sasha Grey in her first legit acting role. Now Soderbergh is back at it again, casting hot MMA superstar Gina Carano to star in his next film, Knockout. Knockout is a spy thriller that's being described as being a cross between Kill Bill and La Femme Nikita. If you're gonna invoke two of the great action flicks of any generation like that, this better be damn good. The plot seems like it was ripped straight from the Luc Besson classic, as Carano plays a street tough woman who's recruited to user her skills for good. If the idea of a Soderbergh directed spy flick isn't enough, the scripting duties are being handled by Lem Dobbs, who worked with Soderbergh most recently on The Limey.
Soderbergh obviously sees some potential in this film because he waived his usual salary in exchange for an ownership stake.
I don't know much about Carano, being the MMA noob that I am, but this film sounds like it's right up my alley. Despite my issues with some of Soderbergh's subject choices, he is undeniably one of the best directors, and seeing him tackle action, which is a genre he's stayed pretty far away from thus far, has me intrigued. You can't mention Kill Bill, La Femme Nikita, and The Limey and not catch my attention so mark this down as my new most anticipated film for...whenever. No word yet on a possible release date.
