Henry Cavill, Jake Gyllenhaal, Eiza González prove grey is far from boring

Here's the official trailer for the just released 'In The Grey', written and directed by British film-maker Guy Ritchie. Starring fellow Brit Henry Cavill, US actor Jake Gyllenhaal, and Mexican actress/singer Eiza González, it "follows a covert team of elite operatives who live in the global shadows, as comfortable wielding power and influence as they are automatic weapons and high explosives," says the production studio. "When a ruthless despot steals a billion-dollar fortune, the team is sent to steal it back on what would be for anyone else a suicide mission. What begins as an impossible heist gets much worse, spiraling into an all-out war of strategy, deception and survival". High-octane action with a handsome hero delivering sprinkles of dry wit may remind some of the James Bond film franchise, now in the hands of Amazon MGM Studios. Henry Cavill, 43, has been tagged as a likely successor to Daniel Craig as 007, but he's up against stiff competition, including younger - age may prove to be a deciding factor as the new executive team wants a Bond who can lead the next four or five movies, and they each take about four years to complete. Has Ritchie provided an alternative outlet for the action hero in Cavill?
