John Wick + Suicide Squad Star + Die Hard Hint: The Master of Action Is Back With This Crazy Trailer

This year, John Woo will give the Christmas gifts. In addition to his hood features: crumpled sheet metal, bell beats, pad discharge, slow motion and possibly pigeons, one of his trademarks. If there are no birds in the trailer for his new movie, everything else is. And it promises.

A little less than twenty years after the swan song of his Hollywood adventure, Paycheck, the virtuoso returned to the United States. Silent Night, a very special Christmas movie, devoid of dialogue but no action, in which a father (Joel Kinnaman) is on a mission to avenge the death of his son.

Having become one of the kings of action thanks to films like The Killer (which he is preparing a remake with Omar Sy and Nathalie Emmanuel) or À Reckless, John Woo quickly caught the eye of Hollywood, where he moved on to direct Flip. / Face and Mission: Impossible 2, his biggest success to date.

If it has lost its luster today, its influence is still felt even in John Wick, with which Silent Night shares its producer Basil Iwanyk. Except it joins Crystal Trap and Violent Night in the evil Christmas movie department.

Expected in the US on December 1, the feature film does not yet have a release date in France, and we hope that it will not miss theaters like the filmmaker’s last opus.

Especially since it has the opportunity to remind us who’s boss when it comes to action, offering the villains of this story some surprises that weren’t in the Lenten calendar.
