Emily Blunt, Josh Brolin and Benicio del Toro Featured In New Photos From SICARIO

Emily Blunt, Josh Brolin and Benicio del Toro star in these brand new images from director Denis Villeneuve’s upcoming film, SICARIO.

From Lionsgate, the drama will screen In Competition at the Cannes Film Festival 2015.

In Mexico, SICARIO means hitman.

In the lawless border area stretching between the U.S. and Mexico, an idealistic FBI agent (Emily Blunt) is enlisted by an elite government task force official (Josh Brolin) to aid in the escalating war against drugs.

Led by an enigmatic consultant with a questionable past (Benicio Del Toro), the team sets out on a clandestine journey forcing Kate to question everything that she believes in order to survive.

The screenplay is by Taylor Sheridan.

Also featuring Victor Garber and Jon Bernthal, SICARIO opens in theaters on September 18, 2015 (limited) & September 25, 2015 (wide).

R for strong violence, grisly images, and language
