Gina Rodriguez stars in the 'Miss Bala' trailer
Next year, Columbia Pictures is bringing to the big screen “Miss Bala,” a remake of the 2011 Spanish language film of the same name. The new version stars Gina Rodriguez as Gloria, a woman who finds a power she never knew she had when she is drawn into a dangerous world of cross-border crime. Surviving will require all of her cunning, inventiveness, and strength. You can check out the trailer for yourself in the player above and see the new “Miss Bala” poster right here:
“Miss Bala,” which also stars Anthony Mackie and Ismael Cruz Córdova, is directed by Catherine Hardwicke (“Twilight,” “Red Riding Hood”) from a screenplay by Gareth Dunnet-Alcocer. Kevin Misher and Pablo Cruz produce with Mauricio Katz, Gerardo Naranjo, Samson Mucke, Arturo Sampson, Andy Berman and Jamie Marshall executive producing alongside Hardwicke and Dunnet-Alcocer.
Naranjo directed the original “Miss Bala,” which he also wrote with Katz. The original film is largely responsible for introducing Stephanie Sigman to US audiences. Following her leading role in “Miss Bala,” Sigman went on to star in English language films like “SPECTRE” and “Annabelle: Creation”.
The new “Miss Bala” hits the big screen February 1, 2019.
