Here’s the first trailer for The Assignment which sees Avatar / Fast and Furious star Michelle Rodriguez play both the the character of Frank Kitchen and Tomboy. This movie played at Toronto Film Festival last year and received a mixed bag of reviews along with some bad press due to the subject matter.
