ISLAMABAD 18 June (Online): Fans who love actor Alia Bhatt being the ultimate star in Bollywood films are in for a surprising ride with her Hollywood debut Heart of Stone. The film\u2019s trailer was unveiled at the Netflix Tudum 2023 event in Sao Paulo, Brazil, where Bhatt was present alongside her co-stars Gal Gadot and Jamie Dornan. The action-packed trailer showcases Gadot’s character as the lead but hints at Bhatt playing the evil antagonist.<\/p>\n
Directed by Tom Harper, Heart of Stone is the first instalment in a series similar to the Mission Impossible franchise. The story revolves around Gadot and Dornan’s characters, who are part of a Charter comprising highly trained individuals tasked with maintaining peace in the world when governments fail. The Charter’s power lies in a stolen “heart,” shown to be in possession of Bhatt\u2019s character. Though she doesn’t engage in action scenes in the trailer, it seems like she\u2019s the mighty villain who can bring the Charter to its knees.<\/p>\n
The two-and-a-half-minute trailer introduces the concept of the Charter and its operatives, emphasising their lack of \u201cpersonal connections and political affiliations.\u201d However, when Bhatt steals the Charter’s most valuable weapon, Gadot’s character embarks on a globe-trotting adventure to retrieve it and clear her name. The clip teases exhilarating action sequences, including skydiving, motorcycle chases, and high-speed car pursuits.<\/p>\n
However, it isn\u2019t just Bhatt\u2019s transition from a hero to a villain that makes the project a first of its kind. Gadot’s swift change from superhero roles to a super spy in Heart of Stone has also generated significant buzz. The film marks another collaboration between Netflix and Skydance, with Gadot also producing the project under her Pilot Wave banner. Heart of Stone is set to stream on Netflix from August 11.<\/p>\n
Bhatt shared the trailer on her Instagram and fans couldn\u2019t control their excitement to see the Gangubai actor in a \u201csinister villain\u201d avatar. Some fans raised concerns that her screen time might be limited, but the anticipation remains high.<\/p>\n
Interestingly, Heart of Stone will be released on the same date as husband Ranbir Kapoor’s action thriller Animal, which will be shown in theatres. On the work front, Bhatt will also be seen in Karan Johar’s Rocky aur Rani Ki Prem Kahaani, co-starring Ranveer Singh, scheduled for release on July 28.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
