Blackhat trailer

The first trailer for the new Michael Mann film Blackhat is now online. The title, for the non IT folk out there, refers to a hacker who carries out his actions for bad rather than good. It comes from the old western films where the bad guys always wore a black hat. The film sees a hacker, Chris Hemsworth, getting released from prison in order to help the US and Chinese authorities track down a cyber criminal who is targeting international financial organisations. It soon becomes clear that the stakes are much higher than anticipated.The film marks the return of the visionary director Michael Mann who was the man behind Last of the Mohicans, Heat and most recently Public Enemies. He is a man who likes to try new things with movies and take a few risks that sometimes divide opinion.

Blackhat is released in cinemas in the US on the 15th of January 2015 and the UK on the 20th of February 2015
