Brace yourselves for October 17, as The Shadow Strays hits the screens. Written and directed by Timo Tjahjanto, known for his gripping features The Night Comes for Us and The Big 4, this action drama film promises to be another exhilarating addition to his repertoire. Today's teaser drop offers a glimpse into the adrenaline-pumping sequences that await viewers. The Shadow Strays follows the story of Codename 13, a young assassin who finds herself suspended after a mission gone wrong. During her downtime, she bonds with Monji, a boy who recently lost his mother to a crime syndicate. When Monji disappears, 13 embarks on a quest to find him, even if it means going against her mentor and the organization she belongs to, The Shadows. The film dives deep into themes of redemption and loyalty, set against the backdrop of a brutal and unforgiving underworld. Audiences can expect Tjahjanto's signature style, with expertly choreographed action sequences guaranteed to keep them on the edge of their seats. The emotional core of the story, centered on the bond between 13 and Monji, adds a layer of depth that will resonate with viewers. Adding to the excitement, The Shadow Strays has been selected to screen at the Toronto International Film Festival's Midnight Madness this September. This marks the second time Tjahjanto's work has been featured in this section following his 2016 film Headshot. The cast features a mix of emerging and established stars. Aurora Ribero stars as 13, delivering a powerful performance that combines intense action with deep emotional range. Hana Malasan plays Umbra, a veteran assassin and 13's strict mentor. Ribero and Malasan's performances bring fresh energy and intensity to the screen, with their fight scenes being a highlight to watch out for. Ali Fikry portrays Monji, the young boy who becomes the catalyst for 13's journey. Adipati Dolken steps into a villainous role as Prasetyo, a corrupt cop, while Andri Mashadi plays Ariel, the sadistic crime boss. Don't miss The Shadow Strays, premiering on October 17, only on Netflix.
