Miss Bala (Spanish: Miss Bullet ) is an upcoming 2019 action
thriller film directed by Catherine Hardwicke and written by Gareth Dunnet-Alcocer. It is based on the 2011 Mexican film of the same name . [2] The film stars Gina Rodriguez , Ismael Cruz Córdova and Anthony Mackie , and follows a woman who trains to take down a drug cartel after they kidnap her friend.
"You have to believe me - they made me do it!" Sony Pictures has unveiled the remake of Miss Bala , about a young beauty contest winner who is forced to work for a crime boss after she witnesses a murder. This Hollywood remake is based on Gerardo Naranjo's original 2011 film, which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival that year. This new take on Miss Bala stars Gina Rodriguez and it's entirely in English, despite still being set in/around Mexico. The full cast includes Anthony Mackie , Matt Lauria, Aislinn Derbez , Ismael Cruz Cordova , Cristina Rodlo, and Ricardo Abarca. I'm a fan of the original film, unfortunately this looks like an exaggerated, action-filled update that focuses way too much on everything Hollywood loves - beautiful women, guns, action, explosions. It looks like a really bad remake. Watch out.
