Lou finds the Oscar winner in a completely different role to some of her most compelling performances in the likes of The Help and I, Tonya. Why? Because this time around, she’s serving up stone-cold revenge as an action hero.

Janney stars as Lou, who leads a secluded, rural life believing that she’s put her dangerous past behind her. Her quiet life is interrupted, though, when her neighbour’s (Jurnee Smollett) daughter is kidnapped and she turns up at Lou’s house pleading for help to find her. As a massive storm rages, the two women hit the trail on a rescue mission that will test their limits and expose dark and shocking secrets from their pasts.
