Trailer: John David Washington gets tied up in a mystery in ‘Beckett’

While vacationing in Greece, American tourist Beckett (John David Washington) becomes the target of a manhunt after a devastating accident involving his girlfriend April (Academy Award winner Alicia Vikander). Forced to run for his life and desperate to get across the country to the American embassy to clear his name, tensions escalate as the authorities close in, political unrest mounts, and Beckett falls even deeper into a dangerous web of conspiracy.
Beckett is directed by Ferdinando Cito Filomarino and produced by Luca Guadagnino, Marco Morabito, Francesco Melzi d’Eril, and Gabriele Moratti. It co-stars Boyd Holbrook and Vicky Krieps and is set to premiere at the Locarno Film Festival before heading to Netflix on August 13. Here is the trailer.
