Ripped from the headlines and being inspired by actual events, Kate Beckinsale (the Underworld franchise) returns to the action-thriller with her newest project titled Stolen Girl which teams her up with rising action star Scott Eastwood (the Fast & Furious franchise, The Outpost). When all seems lost, a mother who faces an unthinkable horror when her child is abducted by her ex, teams with an ex-soldier to find her and bring her home in director James Kent’s kinetic thriller hitting this month. Scroll below for the first look and subsequent new poster!
Official Synopsis: Based on extraordinary real-life events, Stolen Girl follows a determined mother, Mara (Kate Beckinsale), whose world is shattered when her ex-husband, Karim, abducts their young daughter, Amina, and flees to the Middle East. Desperate to bring her child home, Mara teams up with Robeson (Scott Eastwood), an enigmatic ex-marine and child abduction specialist. Their mission takes them to Beirut, where they’re pulled into a treacherous web of international espionage, betrayal, and corruption. As time runs out, Mara faces the hardest choice of her life—reclaiming her daughter or leaving her behind for her own safety.
James Kent (Testament of Youth, Lost Boys & Fairies) helm Stolen Girl from a script penned by Kas Graham and Rebecca Pollock. Joining Beckinsale and Eastwood in the cast are Jordan Duvigneau, Matt Craven, and Arvin Kananian.
Scott Eastwood is quietly making a name for himself in the action genre and is certainly stepping out from his iconic father’s shadows while bringing a no-nonsense swagger to his character of Robeson, a former Marine now child recover expert who aids Beckinsale’s Maureen when the latter’s daughter is taken by someone she knows. Beckinsale is always solid in these types of roles, and it bodes well that her character is anything but a damsel in distress. I must admit that this one wasn’t on my radar but upon viewing the new trailer and seeing the two in action, it definitely looks enticing if not thrilling.
Stolen Girl Hits on September 26th!
