Forget James Bond, Meet Blake Lively's Stephanie Patrick

James Bond might not directly be a woman anytime soon, although that hasn't stopped Blake Lively from taking the Bond vibe and channeling it for her upcoming film.


The Rhythm Section looks like a Bond film in everything nevertheless name, as Lively takes on the role of Stephanie Patrick. Patrick is working to uncover the truth in back of a plane crash that ended up claiming the lives of her family member. She's poised to do anything and everything to exact revenge on those accountable for the crash, even if that demonstrates taking on new identities.


The latest trailer shows off the charismatic Patrick as she's photographed in a number of different wigs: a cropped brown 'do, lengthy retro pin-up waves, as well as a shaggy blonde look. It's all in the name of tracking down her target, and she's going to get them, one way or another. Something tells us while she finds her target, things aren't going to be so wonderful for them.


The film, based on Mark Burnell's novel, looks like a much darker and even more intense affair than a Bond film, bereft of the stylized presentation and more akin to a raw adventure movie than anything else.


But what is present is an austere hope in Lively that she sharpens while training for getting her revenge. It isn't clear just nevertheless how the different personas she uses throughout her hunt will come into the scene any time it comes to exacting her revenge, however we can't wait to be able to see what occurs.

The Rhythm Section is headed to theaters on January 31. That should give you plenty of time still to work out in your mind how far you'd go for revenge. If it includes wearing a lustrous wig like that red one, sign me up, personally.
