Rather than looking inside Hollywood, Lionsgate set their sights on the international filmmaking arena in selecting their director for Sicario 2 (aka Soldado). It was revealed last week that Stefano Sollima (the director and creator behind the Italian miniseries Gomarrah, based on Matteo Garrone‘s break-out feature) would be helming the sequel to Denis Villeneuve‘s film, titled Soldado, shooting this fall. For those that want to see a look at his style, today we have a trailer for his latest crime thriller.
Titled Suburra, the Rome-set feature is set in an underworld where the government is falling apart as blood spills on the streets thanks to criminals. While it relies a bit too heavy on M83, like many a trailer before it, the U.K. preview does sell a slick-looking drama that has looking forward to a follow-up to Villeneueve’s film a bit more.
Check out the new trailer and poster below thanks to Empire for the film that will be turned into a series for Netflix, premiering in 2017.
Suburra hits the U.K. on June 24 and is now streaming on Netflix in the U.S.
