Already drawing a lot of praise and talk of potential awards, Denis Villeneuve's cartel crime thriller Sicario has been impressing us so far with its trailers, and this new one is no exception.

Sicario – which means “hitman” in Mexico – is set on the lawless border between the United States and its southern neighbour, where some of the most violent battles of the drug war are fought. Dropped into this near literal trial by fire is idealistic FBI agent Kate Macer (Emily Blunt), who has been recruited by shadowy elite government agent Matt (Josh Brolin).

Heading across the border with an enigmatic “consultant” (Benicio Del Toro), Kate and her team start a journey that will have her questioning everything she knows about good and bad. She witnesses the many shades of grey that lie in between what she previously thought were black-and-white issues. And when she becomes convinced she has to expose what’s really going on, things become even more dangerous for her.

Taylor Sheridan wrote the screenplay; Jon Bernthal, Raoul Trujillo, Jeffrey Donovan and Victor Garber bulk out the cast; and Sicario will be out in the UK on October 9.
