Viola Davis is a politician on a mission to save her family in the trailer for Amazon Studios action thriller, G20.
The Oscar-winning actress leads the cast as U.S. President Danielle Sutton.
After traveling to South Africa for a summit of world leaders, Sutton and her family become the primary targets of terrorists who’ve launched a “deep fake” plot to seize control of the world’s financial markets.
In the trailer, released Wednesday, Feb. 12, Sutton refuses to be a victim, grabs a gun, throws punches, and fights back.
“If you want to live, you’ll follow my lead,” she tells another world leader who taunts her for trying to be “Captain America.”
She soon impresses her political counterparts by neutralizing two heavily-armed men.
