After a five-year hiatus from filmmaking, Jessica Alba is set to return to the big screen with Netflix’s upcoming action-thriller, Trigger Warning. The movie follows Parker, a skilled Special Forces Officer played by Alba, who returns to her hometown after her father’s death and takes ownership of the family bar. However, she soon finds herself in the crosshairs of a violent local gang terrorizing the town and sets out to uncover a dangerous political conspiracy connected to her father’s death. This action-packed thriller marks Alba’s comeback to films since 2019’s Killers Anonymous and promises to deliver a gripping storyline.

Directed by Indonesian filmmaker Mouly Surya in her English language debut, Trigger Warning explores sensitive and critical themes like loss, grief, and trauma, which add depth to the action-packed plot. The film has been in development since 2016 and is described as a cross between Rambo: First Blood and John Wick, which can be attributed to Parker’s characterization of a woman on a mission, despite all odds. The analogy is also logical considering John Wick producer Basil Iwanyk is also attached to the project, which delivers a similar action-thriller experience to John Wick or First Blood.

The movie boasts a talented cast, including Mark Webber as Sheriff Jesse Swann, the town’s sheriff and Parker’s ex-boyfriend, Anthony Michael Hall as the story’s antagonist, Senator Ezekiel Swann, and Tone Bell as Spider, a hacker and Parker’s covert-ops partner. Kaiwi Lyman and Hari Dhillon also star in supporting roles. Trigger Warning is written by John Brancato, Josh Olson, and Halley Gross, based on a short story by Otep Shamaya, and features music composed by Enis Rotthoff, who previously scored Guns Akimbo and Showtime’s Your Honor.

Jessica Alba serves as an executive producer for Trigger Warning under her banner, Lady Spitfire, along with Basil Iwanyk of Thunder Road Films, Erica Lee, and Esther Hornstein. With its gripping storyline and impressive cast, Trigger Warning is sure to be an action-packed thrill ride that fans of the genre won’t want to miss.
