‘Heart Of Stone’ Trailer: Gal Gadot’s Spy Thriller Hits Netflix This August

Gal Gadot’s future as Wonder Woman is still up in the air, but her schedule is apparently free enough for a return to the Fast & Furious franchise. She might also have another franchise on her hands with Heart of Stone, the Netflix spy thriller in the vein of James Bond.

A new trailer for Heart of Stone has dropped during Netflix’s Tudum event, and in it, we can see other influences including Mission: Impossible and Jason Bourne. Here’s the film synopsis:

“Rachel Stone is an intelligence operative, the only woman who stands between her powerful, global, peace-keeping organization and the loss of its most valuable — and dangerous — asset.”

Also in the cast are Jamie Dornan, Ali Bhatt, Archie Madekwe, Matthias Schweighofer, Sophie Okonedo, and Jung Lusi.

Behind the camera is Wild Rose director Tom Harper, working from a script co-written by Allison Schroeder (Hidden Figures) and Greg Rucka, a comic book veteran and crime novelist whose comic The Old Guard was adapted into a huge Netflix film that’s getting a sequel.

Heart of Stone hits Netflix on August 11th.
