News About "Atomic Blonde"

Atomic Blonde is based on Antony Johnston's graphic novel The Coldest City.

The trailer shows Charlize Theron's version of the character Lorraine Broughton as a one-woman force, who is willing to use sex or violence to accomplish her covert missions. (this includes a make out session with another woman.) Although based on a comic book, the film isn't for the kids. Parents should take note of the MPAA's R-rating that cautions about Atomic Blonde's violent, sexual and language content.

From the Studio:
The crown jewel of Her Majesty's Secret Intelligence Service, Agent Lorraine Broughton (Theron) is equal parts spycraft, sensuality and savagery, willing to deploy any of her skills to stay alive on her impossible mission. Sent alone into Berlin to deliver a priceless dossier out of the destabilized city, she partners with embedded station chief David Percival (James McAvoy) to navigate her way through the deadliest game of spies.
