‘The Rhythm Section’ is a new film from Paramount Pictures that stars Blake Lively, Jude Law, and Sterling K. Brown. Lively plays a character that she has not typically portrayed. A woman hellbent on revenge after her family is killed. From the producers of James Bond, it looks to be one hell of a thrill ride. It is truly Lively like you’ve never seen her before!
According to a summary on the trailer’s YouTube page, “Blake Lively stars as Stephanie Patrick, an ordinary woman on a path of self-destruction after her family is tragically killed in a plane crash. When Stephanie discovers that the crash was not an accident, she enters a dark, complex world to seek revenge on those responsible and find her own redemption. Based on the novel by Mark Burnell.”
‘The Rhythm Section’ Official Trailer – Blake Lively Like You’ve Never Seen Her Before!
‘The Rhythm Section’ looks full of action and intensity! An action film with a woman in the lead role has never been an easy sell. However, today they seem to know how to do it! While there have been exceptions, like ‘Alien’, ‘Resident Evil’, and ‘The Brave One’, these aren’t in the highest demand. With a great cast and incredible producers though, they seem to have created something special!
The film is based on a novel, by Mark Burnell. Originally published in 1999, there is a series of novels that follows the protagonist Stephanie Patrick. The novel ventures into some pretty dark moments in Stephanie’s life, so it’ll be interesting to see if the film will delve into that side of the story. It does have an R rating, so it is possible. Perhaps if this film is successful, we could see the return of Lively in the role. There are plenty of stories to tell and places to go for Stephanie. With an actress as talented as Lively, this film could be set up for success!
