So… as I said earlier this week, a little bird told me that the first trailer for the Zoe Saldana revenge thriller, Colombiana, would debut online this afternoon. Well, guess what? It has!

And boy, I gotta say, as has already been documented on this site, I’ve had my doubts about Zoe’s ability to really embody the part and carry the film; but after watching this 2 1/2-minute trailer, I think I’ll start singing a new tune, because this looks like it’ll be good and good for her career!

The yet-to-be-rated revenge actioner about a young woman who grows up to be a stone-cold assassin, after witnessing the murder of her parents in Bogota, is produced by Luc Besson, with Olivier Megaton assuming directing duties.

The film is scheduled for a September 2nd theatrical release.

Watch the trailer for Colombiana below, which I’m told will be attached to prints of Jumping The Broom this weekend!
