Karen Gillan and Lena Headey are a daughter-mother assassin duo in the action-packed trailer for Navot Papushado's Gunpowder Milkshake.

The film stars Gillan as Sam, a lethal killer-for-hire who serves a "ruthless" crime syndicate known as The Firm. However, when Sam betrays her employers in order to protect a young girl (Chloe Coleman), she's left with little choice but to reach out to her mother Scarlet (Headey), an equally deadly hired gun who was forced to abandon Sam when she was only twelve years old.

In addition to highlighting Gillan and Headey, the Gunpower Milkshake trailer offers a sneak peek at Angela Bassett, Carla Gugino and Michelle Yeoh as The Librarians -- Scarlet's old associates and a team of highly-skilled assassins in their own right. The main cast is rounded out by Paul Giamatti as Nathan, Sam's boss-turned enemy at The Firm.

Netflix acquired the domestic rights to Gunpowder Milkshake from STX Entertainment back in April, with a sequel already in the early stages of development. Co-production company Studiocanal has the international rights and will release Gunpowder Milkshake theatrically in France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand, with STX distributing the film in Canada, China and Latin America.

The official synopsis for Gunpower Milkshake reads,

Sam was only 12 years old when her mother Scarlet, an elite assassin, was forced to abandon her. Sam was raised by The Firm, the ruthless crime syndicate her mother worked for. Now, 15 years later, Sam has followed in her mother’s footsteps and grown into a fierce hit-woman.

But when a high-risk job goes wrong, Sam must choose between serving The Firm and protecting the life of an innocent 8-year-old girl - Emily. With a target on her back, Sam has only one chance to survive: Reunite with her mother and her lethal associates, The Librarians.

These three generations of women must now learn to trust each other, stand up to The Firm and their army of henchmen, and raise hell against those who could take everything from them.

Directed and co-written by Navot Papushado, Gunpowder Milkshake stars Karen Gillan, Lena Headey, Carla Gugino, Chloe Coleman, Ralph Ineson, Adam Nagaitis, Michael Smiley, Michelle Yeoh, Angela Bassett, and Paul Giamatti. It will begin streaming on Netflix July 14 and play in theaters internationally this summer.
