Angelina Jolie’s latest film, Without Blood, is released to wider audiences with a new US trailer featuring Salma Hayek Pinault as a woman driven to seek revenge after a devastating war. The movie follows her as she tracks down a man she believes holds answers about the deaths of her family. The trailer presents the story as a war thriller with a parable-like focus on personal motives and aftermath.
Without Blood is an adaptation of Alessandro Baricco’s novel of the same name. Sources describe the film as set in an unnamed country, exploring themes of family, memory, trauma, and revenge. One outlet notes the film previously premiered at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival and is only now getting a broader release.
The outlets differ mainly in emphasis: one highlights the film’s tone and chemistry among its lead cast and mentions early audience/critical interest indicators, while the other focuses on the premise and the upcoming release date. Both, however, agree on the core plot: a revenge-driven pursuit rooted in war’s lasting impact.
