A year ago, we reported that Gal Gadot (in her first major starring role since Wonder Woman, somehow) would be appearing alongside Dwayne Johnson in a “globe-trotting, action-comedy, heist thriller” called Red Notice for Universal. It wasn’t super interesting, but now Netflix has swooped in with a twist: According to Deadline, the streaming service has taken Red Notice off of Universal’s hands with what is “arguably its biggest commitment to a feature film” to date—which is to say that this is going to cost Netflix a ton of money.
