New ‘Sicario Day of the Soldado’ trailer teases action, intensity and style

New Sicario: Day of the Soldado will have Stefano Sollima (Gomorrah) taking over as director and the new trailer teases a ton of action, style and intensity to the highly touted original film.

The film picks up during an escalation of the drug war at the US-Mexico border after the cartels start sending terrorists across to American soil. The film picks up with Benicio Del Toro’s revenge-fuelled Alejandro when he’s recruited once again by Josh Brolin’s CIA operative Matt Graver to start a war between dueling cartels by kidnapping a Kingpin’s daughter (Isabela Moner). But when the mission is exposed, things get a little too dirty and and when he’s ordered to terminate the girl, Alejandro ends up at war with everyone.

Check out the trailer below and a full synopsis at the bottom.

The film also stars Catherine Keener, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, Jeffrey Donovan, and Matthew Modine and opens in theaters on June 29, 2018.

Here’s the official synopsis:

“In SICARIO, Day of the Soldado, the series begins a new chapter. In the drug war, there are no rules – and as the cartels have begun trafficking terrorists across the US border, federal agent Matt Graver (Josh Brolin) calls on the mysterious Alejandro (Benicio Del Toro), whose family was murdered by a cartel kingpin, to escalate the war in nefarious ways. Alejandro kidnaps the kingpin’s daughter to inflame the conflict – but when the girl is seen as collateral damage, her fate will come between the two men as they question everything they are fighting for.”
