Details of the actual plot aren’t known just yet, but Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill and Edgar Wright’s Baby Driver are considered the film’s “touchstones,” which will mix stylized action with violence. The script is being described as following Headey and Gillan’s mother-daughter assassin duo and Yeoh will be part of a secret sisterhood of arms dealers who assist the two when things go south.
Gugino would play a member of the mysterious sisterhood, per the report.
