Tenet actor John David Washington is a man on the run in the first trailer for Netflix’s Beckett.
Also starring Tomb Raider‘s Alicia Vikander, The Predator‘s Boyd Holbrook and Old‘s Vicky Krieps, this one looks like a relentless thriller guaranteed to keep film fans on the edge of their sofas.

Definitely not a biopic on comedian and Celebs Go Dating narrator Rob Beckett, an official synopsis reads: “Following a tragic car accident in Greece, Beckett, an American tourist, finds himself at the centre of a dangerous political conspiracy – and on the run for his life.”
Washington’s protagonist might not be up against time-bending assailants here, but they’re probably just as mean judging by the trailer.
