Wanted star James McAvoy his back with a new action-packed thriller in which he’s called on to dive over countertops, dodge bullets in slow motion, and other such heroic stuff. Welcome to the Punch is a slick-looking movie and it should be, as it’s executive produced by none other than Ridley Scott. McAvoy headlines a topnotch cast that also includes Mark Strong (Kick-Ass), David Morrissey (TV’s The Walking Dead), and Andrea Riseborough (Never Let Me Go).

In the film, McAvoy plays a determined cop who’s driven to the edge in his quest to catch a career criminal (Strong). When Strong returns to London to retrieve his injured son, McAvoy finally gets the chance to take him down…until he realizes things are not as they seem. The first trailer for Welcome to the Punch is online now, and promises icy blue visuals and plenty of Bourne-style action.

Update: The film already opened in the UK to mixed reviews but still has to make its way to North American markets at the end of this month (March). So here’s the latest trailer via YouTube.
