'Sicario' Trailer: Emily Blunt and the Director of 'Prisoners' Get Caught in the Mexican Drug War

By Peter Hall

We assume Sicario is already on your radar because we also assume you remember it being on our list of 2015 Movies That Need to Be on Your Radar. If, however, it isn’t, we’re guessing it will be after watching the first trailer for it, which just hit online.

Directed by Denis Villeneuve (Prisoners, Enemy, and the upcoming Blade Runner sequel), Sicario stars the always impressive Emily Blunt as a rising FBI agent who is sent to Mexico to help the CIA take down a drug cartel. As is often the case with trying to topple drug-fueled empires, things don’t go so well, and our bushy tailed agent finds herself caught up in a war that seems to have enemies on all sides.

Sicario also stars Josh Brolin, Benecio Del Toro, Victor Garber, and Jon Bernthal. It hits theaters on September 18, 2015.
