We’ve got the good guys and some of the bad guys, but now we also have one of the bad girls for The Secret Service. The Matthew Vaughn movie based on the comics by Mark Millar for Fox has picked up Sofia Boutella for it as she’ll play the lead female antagonist alongside Samuel L. Jackson. Boutella isn’t a known name to be sure and this is her first main role in Hollywood. Previously, she’s been doing work in French films and TV as well as being one of the dancers on the recent Madonna world tour.
Directed by Matthew Vaughn, it stars Colin Firth, Taron Egerton and Samuel L. Jackson and is scheduled for a November 14, 2014 release.
