Watch the first trailer for Luc Besson’s ‘Lucy’ starring black widow herself Scarlett Johansson.

Having taken a liking to Sci-Fi, Scarlett Johansson is back in Luc Besson’s (Taken Franchise) new action movie ‘Lucy’ and it looks awesome!

Johansson plays a drug mule working for the mob, in a city that is run by the underworld, drug addicts, and a corrupted police force, set in a distant Taipei in 2069 AD. When the drug she is carrying accidentally enters her system, she turns into a metahuman capable of otherworldly powers such as absorbing knowledge instantly, moving objects with her mind and an immunity to pain. As her powers increase she joins forces with a medical professor, played by Morgan Freeman, while the underworld chases her down.

Lucy looks like a typical Besson sci-fi movie that won’t be by the book. It releases in cinemas in August.
