How do you salvage your reputation after being responsible for egregious Oscar-bait The Soloist? English director Joe Wright looks to have made the right choice by ditching righteous schmaltz in favour of all-out action with Hanna, a film that takes the character concept of Kick Ass‘ Hit-Girl and gives it a full film in which to unleash havoc.
Better yet, the eponymous Hanna is to be played by Saoirse Ronan, a young Irish actress every bit as great as her first name is unpronounceable to 99% of audiences. (It’s SEER-SHA! Not SAY-OH-EAR-SEE, as one especially dismal fellow said on his way out of The Lovely Bones).
Hanna sees Saoirse The Great playing the daughter of a rogue CIA agent, played by Eric Bana no less, who has trained her all her life at their woodland cabin home to become the ultimate assassin. Upon hitting puberty, her dad allows the CIA to capture her so she can go on a rampage across Europe and execute a secret mission. If that doesn’t sound amazing to you, check your pulse immediately.
Follow the jump for a trailer and new poster, focusing to striking effect on Ronan’s piercing blue eyes.
