Trailer of the ‘9 Bullets’
Gypsy (Headey) meets the youngster she’ll guard after he makes a botched escape attempt in the trailer. By saving the youngster, however, she rapidly attracts the attention of the local gang that wants the kid killed. In order to protect herself, Gypsy will have no choice but to battle and destroy everybody who enters her way.
Sam Worthington (Avatar) plays a local mafia leader who is also Gypsy’s ex-husband; Dean Scott Vasquez (Transformers: Rise of the Beasts) plays a young man in peril; and Cam Gigandet (Twilight) as an aggressive gang member in 9 Bullets. Martin Sensmeier, La La Anthony, and Barbara Hershey are featured in the cast (Black Swan).
About ‘9 Bullets’
Gigi Gaston (Rip It Off), the writer and director of 9 Bullets, cites her personal connection to Gypsy Rose Lee as the driving force for the film. The late Stephen Sondheim adapted Lee’s autobiography into a hit musical. Gaston is certain that Lee learned the real meaning of “female power” from Gaston’s brilliance and ability to dominate a room full of people.
