Benicio Del Toro and Josh Brolin unleash chaos in the brand new trailer for ‘Sicario 2: Soldado’

Benicio Del Toro sent a chill down our spines with his intense performance as Alejandro in Sicario and now he’s returning to unleash all out war in the hotly anticipated sequel Sicario 2: Soldado.

The new trailer is here and it clarifies Alejandro’s mission and the chaos that he intends to level on his enemies. Check it out below:

Here’s the synopsis:

Following the events of Sicario, CIA Task Force Commander Matt Graver (Josh Brolin) is commanded to eliminate drug cartels operating in Mexico. Bringing Alejandro (Benicio Del Toro) back into the fold, Graver and his top assassin return to Mexico to start a war between two rival cartels in an effort to silence them for good.

The new trailer focuses in the mission that Graver and Alejandro take and the rift that develops between these two men. New director Stefano Sollima (Gomorrah) again focuses in on the film’s sense of realism with particular attention to detail on the film’s weaponry and hardware, along with giving us a deeper insight into Alejandro’s frayed and twisted psyche.

Check out my full trailer reaction video for Soldado below and hear my thoughts on the film’s tone and just where this story is going:

Sicario 2: Soldado is not for the faint of heart but it will provide some definite thrills when it arrives in cinemas on June 28.
