News About "Red Sparrow"
Jennifer Lawrence stars as Dominika Egorova, a woman who is becomes a Russian special agent after her career as a ballerina comes to an abrupt end. Her physical strength and beauty make her a potent weapon, especially when the subjects of her assignments are male. Of course, she meets her match in Nathaniel Nash (Joel Egerton), a CIA operative. Love, violence, trust and betrayal are all part of the plot as she tries to determine where she should place her alliances.
From the Studio:
Dominika Egorova is many things.
A devoted daughter determined to protect her mother at all costs.
A prima ballerina whose ferocity has pushed her body and mind to the absolute limit.
A master of seductive and manipulative combat.
When she suffers a career-ending injury, Dominika and her mother are facing a bleak and uncertain future. That is why she finds herself manipulated into becoming the newest recruit for Sparrow School, a secret intelligence service that trains exceptional young people like her to use their bodies and minds as weapons. After enduring the perverse and sadistic training process, she emerges as the most dangerous Sparrow the program has ever produced. Dominika must now reconcile the person she was with the power she now commands, with her own life and everyone she cares about at risk, including an American CIA agent who tries to convince her he is the only person she can trust.
