Noomi Rapace is seeking revenge … with a little help from Colin Farrell…

The 33-year-old half-Spanish actress and Prometheus star and Farrell get caught in the crosshairs of revenge in Dead Man Down, the new film from Niels Arden Oplev, the man behind Rapace’s critically aclaimed 2009 Swedish film The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

In Dead Man Down, Rapace’s character Beatrice becomes a victim to an underground crime lord in New York City, Alphonse Hoyt, played by Terrence Howard.

Beatrice then looks to exact revenge, and to achieve her goal she seduces Alphonse’s right hand man, Farrell’s character Victor, before blackmailing him into killing his own boss. It so happens Victor is also seeking to avenge the death of his wife and daughter at the hands of his boss. As the film progresses, Victor and Beatrice’s intense chemistry leads them spiraling into payback delivered in violent catharsis.

With a supporting cast that includes Dominic Cooper, Raw Leiba, Isabelle Huppert and Puerto Rican actor Franky G, the R-rated movie is set for a March 8 release in the U.S.
