Priyanka Chopra Jonas stars as a cutthroat pirate in the brutal first trailer for The Bluff.
The actress plays Ercell “Bloody Mary” Bodden in the R-rated action movie, which dropped its first trailer on Wednesday, Jan. 14.
An ex-pirate with a bloody past, Ercell finds solitude with her family in the Cayman Islands. But, a synopsis teases, “When her notorious former captain, Connor (Karl Urban), arrives seeking revenge, Ercell’s world is torn apart.”
“Forced to confront the demons she’s tried to bury, Ercell is thrust back into a deadly game of secrets and survival,” the synopsis adds.
