BARELY LETHAL TRAILER (Video) – Settling into a normal adolescent life isn’t always easy, especially for a trained spy, in the first exclusive trailer for the upcoming comedy Barely Lethal, starring Hailee Steinfeld!
Steinfeld is best known for playing Mattie Ross in True Grit, for which she garnered a Best Supporting Actress Oscar nomination. She will star in the upcoming Pitch Perfect 2 film alongside Anna Kendrick and Rebel Wilson, set for release May 2015.
Barely Lethal centers on Megan (Steinfeld), a teenage international assassin who fakes her own death in order to go high school in a suburban neighborhood. Little does Megan know that Heather (Sophie Turner), another undercover agent, is sent by her rival Victoria (Jessica Alba) to retrieve her.
The film is directed by Kyle Newman (Spartacus: Blood and Sand) and is scripted by John D’Arco. It also stars Samuel L. Jackson, Jamie King, and Dove Cameron.
PLOT: A teenage special ops agent coveting a “normal” adolescence fakes her own death and enrolls in a suburban high school. She quickly learns that surviving the treacherous waters of high school is more challenging than international espionage.
