Scarlett Johansson is once again back to what she does best at, kicking ass. She has taken the leading role in the film Lucy, Luc Besson’s new movie.
The story follows as Lucy wakes up with bags full of drugs inside her stomach and is forced to travel with them. But as the drugs are leaked into her body she is reaching the limit of using her brain up to 100 percent, as opposed to the typical, measly ten. She decides to use her new-found powers to beat people up in increasingly god-like ways. But as the powers grow she manages to shape-shift and travel in time.
Another famous actor, Morgan Freeman, plays the role of a neurologist who is the only help for Lucy as she has no idea what her powers do to her body and mind.
There is no doubt that Luc Besson’s film is very similar to the story of Limitless starring Bradley Cooper.
Directed by Luc Besson, Lucy hits theaters on August 8.
