“Be careful poking that bear. Or the target will be on you.” Paramount Plus unveiled an official trailer for the action thriller undercover agent series called Special Ops: Lioness, originally known as just Lioness. A young Marine is recruited by the CIA to befriend the daughter of a terrorist group in order to bring down the organization from within. Inspired by an actual US Military program, this is yet another series created by the gritty crime writer Taylor Sheridan, known for the “Yellowstone” series & spin-offs, as well as Sicario, Hell or High Water, Wind River, and many others. It’s not directed by Sheridan, but it is written by him and produced. The series stars Zoe Saldaña as Joe, Laysla De Oliveria, Michael Kelly, Dave Annable, Jill Wagner, LaMonica Garrett, with Morgan Freeman, and Nicole Kidman. After the first teaser, I wasn’t so sure about this, but all the new footage in here looks damn good. It could either be incredible, a real possibility with Sheridan, or just mediocre as the story plays out. Will she pull it off? Want to find out?

Here’s the main official trailer for Paramount+’s series Special Ops: Lioness, on Paramount+’s YouTube:
