Directed by Simon Kinberg, this spy thriller features Mace (Jessica Chastain), a wildcard type of CIA agent who decides to join forces with other spies to retrieve a top-secret weapon stolen by mercenaries planning to unleash global trouble. Since the weapon involves cyberspace knowhow, Mace convinces former MI6 British agent Khadijah (Lupita Nyong'o) to help since she's a computer specialist. She also recruits Colombian psychologist Graciela (Penélope Cruz) and even a rival agent from Germany named Marie (Diane Kruger) to join the espionage team.
